CHARLOTTE — MiraVia will host its 29th annual banquet Saturday, Oct. 21, at the Charlotte Convention Center. This year’s speaker is Jim Caviezel, a world-renowned actor and Catholic.
His most significant role came when he was chosen by Mel Gibson to portray Jesus in “The Passion of the Christ.” The movie made headlines and broke box-office records around the world and became one of the highest grossing films of all time. Caviezel is continuing to give his best to play challenging roles, most recently in the blockbuster hit “Sound of Freedom.”
Online registration for the banquet for individuals and table hosts opens at noon Sept. 1 at www.miravia.org/banquet. The event is free, but registration is required. Each table seats 10 guests. Due to Caviezel’s popularity and the likelihood of a waiting list, all table guest names must be submitted with online registration. MiraVia will accept reservations until they reach maximum capacity for the event.
