Our Banquet Hall serves as a flexible space that can house all types of functions and events! Our most common events include bridal showers, birthday parties, graduation celebrations, and wedding receptions. The hall can seat up to 235 people with some additional capacity if needed.
Scroll down to fill out an application to rent this space and to view our regulations for the space! Please note: an application does not guarantee you the specific room(s) or event date. We will reach out to you to discuss your event further and to either confirm or discuss the event date and other details.
If you are interested in renting one of our smaller rooms or will need access to the kitchen, please note that on the application. Unless otherwise noted, you will only be receiving access to the banquet hall.

Church Member Sponsor: Our requirement of a sponsor that is either a member of Calvary Assembly of God Church or on staff at The Connection Center is just a way to keep our renters accountable to our rules and regulations. If you are not currently connected to someone who can sponsor you, you can contact Frankie Lane, our Event Coordinator, and she or another staff member will meet with you to discuss our regulations. They will then become your sponsor for the event.
