Monarch Annual Banquet 2026
Pressing On Together: Expanding our Reach
On April 23, 2026, we reveal the next chapter of Monarch’s mission. Come see how far we are about to reach.
A Personal Invitation
From Executive Director Peter Schrock:
We have spent 2025 preparing for something significant. I want you to be in the room when we share what’s next for the families we serve in Southeast Missouri. Help us make it happen by joining us for this special evening.
What is Monarch Family Resource Center?
Monarch Family Resource Center (formerly Parkland Pregnancy Resource Center) is a faith-based nonprofit in Farmington, Missouri, that provides free holistic support to families navigating pregnancy and early parenthood. Their services include pregnancy testing, limited ultrasounds, and a wide array of educational classes for both mothers and fathers on topics like prenatal care, infant development, and healthy relationships. Through their "Earn While You Learn" program, clients earn points by participating in these classes, which can be redeemed at the center's boutique for essential supplies like diapers, clothing, carseats, strollers, and more.
How much does the event cost to attend?
The banquet does not cost anything to attend, but it is a fundraiser. The cost of putting on the banquet is generously supplied by our business sponsors. Since this is a fundraiser we ask you to bring your checkbooks or come ready to give online. We will be asking your for a donation at the event.
What do I wear to the event?
People at the event will be wearing clothes that range from business casual to semi-formal.

Why should I come?
Our banquet is a fun night of inspiration and an opportunity to discover what the Monarch FRC community is accomplishing with all who partner with us. Since this is our biggest fundraiser for the year, it is a great place to make a donation to empower our mission of saving lives and helping families thrive.
