Emmanuel SDA Church (Cleburne)

Invest in the future. Celebrate community. Share Christ’s love.

The Fall Marketplace Festival is more than an event — it’s a ministry in motion. Your sponsorship directly supports Emmanuel SDA Children’s Ministry, helping us create a safe, welcoming, and Christ‑centered space where children can grow in faith, discover their gifts, and serve others.

In return, your business or organization will receive recognition and visibility before, during, and after the event — all in a way that honors IRS 501(c)(3) “qualified sponsorship” guidelines and reflects biblical principles of stewardship and service.
