2025 H.O.P.E. Campaign Fundraiser Invitation!

A message from our family and partners at the H.O.P.E. Campaign – 

Hello, everyone!  We pray you are all doing well.  

You are invited to join us for the 14th annual fish fry fundraiser in memory of our parents, Larry & Kathy, and our sister, Sara, as well as for all who’ve battled cancer themselves or have fought alongside a family member or friend.  This is our small way of giving back!  

We celebrate H.O.P.E. ~ Healing, Optimism, Prayer and Example.  With your help, the H.O.P.E. Campaign has raised over $180,000 to date.  Since 2000, 18 FORE Life has sent out over $3.9 million in love offerings all over Southeast Missouri and beyond, but there’s “more work to do!”  Our family knows personally the gifts received with each $1,000 love offering that is given, and we’re honored to work with you so that together we can bless others with gifts of hope, love and encouragement. 

This year’s fish fry is scheduled for Friday, March 28, from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Trinity Methodist Church in Bloomfield.  Live music by Maggie Thorn & Jordan Copeland!

Please see attached flyers with more information about the fish fry and t-shirt/sweatshirt sales.  You may e-mail us with questions at larrybjonehopecampaign@yahoo.com or find us on facebook at fb.com/larrybjoneshopecampaign

The Family of Larry & Kathy Jones

Hoping everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. Tomorrow is a day designated as Giving Tuesday! So if you are inclined to donate to a cause, we would love to have your help as we push towards $4 MILLION given away in love offerings since 2000. We are certainly blessed with a monstrous community of support-thank you for being on our team.

Sincerely, Scott Kruse
