Lincoln Christian Church holds
annual all you can eat fundraiser breakfast
[March 10, 2026]
Saturday brought hungry folks
to Lincoln Christian Church (LCC) for
The-Ultimate-All-You-Can-Eat-Breakfast annual fundraiser. Proceeds
from the breakfast go toward the spring and summer tours of
Heartsong (5th through 8th grade) and Good News (9th through 12
grade) youth choirs. All choir students are required to help with
the work of serving and cleaning up the ultimate breakfast to
support their choir tours.
Delicious aromas wafted through the LCC Fellowship Center while
people gobbled up fresh pancakes, crispy bacon, scrambled eggs,
fried potatoes, sausage patties, biscuits & gravy, orange juice, and
iced tea. Carry-outs were also available. The over 580 attendees had
only themselves to blame if they left without full bellies.
Choir director and LCC Worship
Minister Laurin Hill said, “We appreciate the church and the
community coming to support us. We are excited about both tours.
This fundraiser breakfast helps us out. A couple of students were
able to completely pay for their tour expenses [with this
fundraiser]. The crowd was steady all morning but never backed up.
We have a great team of students and parents that make it happen."
Students, parents, and sponsors manned the griddle and serving
stations, cleared and cleaned tables, washed dishes, and generally
made sure diners had everything they needed.

Heartsong’s portion of the proceeds
will help support their spring tour to Macomb from April 17th to
19th. They will be presenting their concert “Only One Name” at
nursing homes on Saturday and on Sunday morning at Maple Avenue
Christian Church. Heartsong has 24 students and will travel with 11
adult sponsors.
Good News will be embarking on a nine-day tour June 9-15 with their
musical production. Good News includes the high school student
choir, T.R.A.S.H (a percussion ensemble using found objects of metal
and plastic), and a drama team. They will have concerts in Illinois,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Indiana with a fun day off from
their eight concerts in New York City to see a Broadway show. They
will fill their tour bus with 31 students and 12 adult sponsors.
Heartsong will be performing a home concert on Sunday, April 19 at
4:00 p.m. at Lincoln Christian Church. Good News will kick off their
9-day tour with a home concert at LCC on Monday, June 8 at 7:00
p.m., and there will be a second nearby opportunity to see them at
their final concert hosted by College Park Christian Church in
Normal on Tuesday, June 16 at 7:00 p.m.
The-Ultimate-All-You-Can-Eat-Breakfast in support of LCC’s student
choirs serves up all the fixin’s every year during the first week of
March, and they welcome everyone who enjoys a good breakfast.
