Methodist Healthcare Ministries of South Texas, Inc. presents
Sunday, October 27
5:00 - 8:00 pm
Homecoming is a celebration that brings people together who haven’t seen each other in a long time, and home-coming is what the staff and supporters of JFON work for with our clients and communities every day.
Serving up drinks, hors d'oeuvres, dinner, music, prizes, hope, and justice - it's going to be a great night and it'll be even better with you there!
The silent auction will be back with some fan favorites returning alongside new, exciting items to bid on. Heads or Tails will make a return, too, so be sure to grab a Homecoming Mum when you arrive, before they run out. We're adding a "Yearbook" (see below) and more tables so that up to 200 guests can attend at our new event venue.
Join in on the Fun
-
Bid on this year's selection of silent auction items
-
Play "Heads or Tails" for a chance to win a fabulous prize

Add your entry to the Yearbook
This year we're including a section in the printed program we're calling the Homecoming Yearbook.
Use your Yearbook entry to honor someone, encourage the clients or staff, share a favorite quote, roast our executive director Lizzie Wright's senior photo, remember an ancestor or a piece of your family's migration story... the possibilities are nearly endless!
This is also a great way to "be there" if you can't make it to the event!
(No advertising, campaigning, or derogatory language will be included in the Homecoming Yearbook)
Yearbook entries are a quarter-page in size, or 2" wide by 4" tall.
One Yearbook entry costs $50
Buy a page of 4 Yearbook entries for $170!

A perfect balance of rustic charm and modern elegance, the incredible cathedral-like ceilings and large stone walls are original to the barn, and nearly all of the wood used inside the building was repurposed from the original structure. There are also some new additions, including the six stunning crystal chandeliers and recycled maple floors.

PAYING WITH A CHECK
Please email homecoming@jfonaustin.org to let us know what ticket you plan to purchase and send your check made out to Austin Region JFON, PO Box 17516, Austin TX 78760
WHAT TO WEAR
Wear what makes you feel festive! Cocktail attire is a good guide, but don't let what you wear stress you out - the whole point is to have fun together and celebrate.
HOW TO REGISTER GUESTS WHILE PURCHASING TICKETS
If you purchase a Pep Squad, Cheerleader, or Booster table, you'll be prompted by the ticketing page to fill in information for each guest at the table. But what if you aren't sure who will be attending? No problem! Those answers shouldn't be required to proceed, so you can leave them blank for now and follow up by emailing names and email addresses to homecoming@jfonaustin.org later. We'll follow up if we haven't heard from you so that info for the event can be emailed out to all guests!
The staff and board of Austin Region Justice for Our Neighbors thanks Methodist Healthcare Ministries of South Texas, Inc. for being our Event Champion for Homecoming 2024 - this gift extends the impact of Homecoming before it has even begun!
