Somerset —
\Fox News host, pastor and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee will be the special guest speaker at a special event to be held at Somerset Christian School (SCS) on Tuesday, Oct. 2.
“Somerset Christian School and Young America’s Foundation have partnered together to bring this exciting event to our community. October 2, 2012, will provide Somerset and surrounding communities the opportunity to glean invaluable insights from Mr. Huckabee and show our appreciation for his leadership and service,” said Hilda Legg, spokesperson for SCS.
“There has never been a more important time in history to elevate Christian leaders in our community. In a self-centered society that pushes individuals to be self-absorbed and self-focused, servant leaders such as Mike Huckabee set an important example of leadership with different ethics.
“Finding success in a career spanning more than 20 years in public service, Mike Huckabee has shown the United States how a Christian leader can make a significant difference without lowering one’s standards.
“Table sponsorships for eight attendees are now being sold for a 6:00 pm dinner and program with Governor Huckabee as our Special Guest. Additional Tickets can be purchased for a VIP Reception. Financial contributions are gratefully accepted for those unable to attend but would like to help sponsor this event,” Legg added.
Huckabee is the host of the number one rated weekend hit HUCKABEE on the Fox News Channel, and Cumulus Media Networks’ syndicated radio program, The Mike Huckabee Show, heard on more than 175 stations. His accomplishments include:
• Former Governor of Arkansas (1996-2007)
• Author of 9 books, most recent being, “A Simple Government”
• Pastor and Past President of the Arkansas Baptist Convention
• Marathon runner and USA Track & Field designations
• Avid Musician, playing with band “Capitol Offense”
• Named one of the “25 Most Influential People for Conservation”
• Husband to Janet, father to John Mark, David and Sarah, and grandfather to Chandler.
