For the last 20 years the Mt. Nebo Voice of Hope Outreach Ministry has sponsored an annual banquet to recognize unsung heroes. On Sunday, March 3, 2024, the annual Black History Celebration \u2013 \u201cStepping Out in Faith\u201d \u2013 was held at the Premiere Banquet Complex to honor this year\u2019s \u201cSilent Soldiers.\u201d<\/p>\n
