RSVP TO ATTEND THE 2026 LEGACY BANQUET
Join us for Shiloh Center’s largest annual fundraising event as we celebrate God’s faithfulness, hear inspiring stories of lives transformed, and cast a bold vision for the future of serving women, babies, fathers, and families throughout Cass County and beyond.
For more than 33 years, Shiloh Center has faithfully served as the only Pregnancy Resource Center in Cass County, walking alongside women and families facing pregnancy-related challenges with compassionate, Christ-centered care. Through Clara Women’s Center, the medical arm of Shiloh Center, we provide free medical services that serve as the gateway to comprehensive support, including parenting education, case management, practical resources, fatherhood programming, and the life-changing hope of Jesus Christ.
Each year, hundreds of supporters gather for an unforgettable evening of worship, fellowship, powerful stories, exceptional speakers, and an opportunity to invest in the future of this ministry. This year’s theme – A New Legacy – celebrates God’s faithfulness over the past three decades while looking forward to the generations still to come.
Our prayer is simple: to build stronger families for generations to come.

Our Speakers
Marcellus Casey
Dr. Kathi Aultman
Lauren Eden
Marcellus Casey
Master of Ceremonies & Special Guest
Growing up with a father who pastored an inner-city church and worked as a chaplain to Olympic and professional athletes, Marcellus gained an inside look into sports ministry life. Having a mother who is a lifetime educator gave Marcellus a picture of what it means to slow down and care for others.
Marcellus now has over 20 years of experience in sports ministry. After playing football and serving as the first-ever football chaplain at Northwest Missouri State University, Marcellus married his high school sweetheart, Stephanie.
He then served as the chaplain for the University of Illinois football and basketball teams through the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) before moving to Kansas City to serve as FCA’s Director for the states of Kansas and Missouri.
In 2016, Marcellus moved his ministry focus to pastoring in the inner city of Kansas City and eventually helped serve vulnerable families on the Eastside of KC through The Hope Center for three years. While working with The Hope Center, Marcellus opened a successful competitive boxing gym, Courage to Climb. The gym focuses on preparing high school athletes to compete through USA Boxing-sanctioned bouts while also teaching them about Jesus and providing mentorship.
Marcellus is currently serving in his 10th season as the chaplain for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Marcellus and Stephanie recently celebrated 20 years of marriage. They have three beautiful daughters, Salem, Cora, and Vivienne, and one handsome son, Ralphie.
Dr. Kathi Aultman
Featured Keynote Speaker
Kathi Aultman, M.D., is a retired Board-Certified OB/GYN and an Associate Scholar with the Charlotte Lozier Institute. She is a member of the American Association of Prolife Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the Christian Medical and Dental Associations, the Florida Medical Association, and is a Life-Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. She practiced medicine from 1981 to 2014 in Orange Park, Florida.
Dr. Aultman was the co-founder and co-director of the first Rape Treatment Center in Jacksonville, Florida, and performed sexual assault exams on women and children as a medical examiner for Duval and Clay Counties. She performed 1st-trimester D&C with suction abortions and 2nd-trimester D&E’s. She also served as the Medical Director for Planned Parenthood of Northeast Florida, Inc. from 1981 to 1983.
Her experiences doing abortions, and those in her OB/GYN practice, led her to a prolife position. She has spoken nationally and internationally and has testified extensively on various pro-life issues before state legislatures, Congress, state courts, and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. She has spoken internationally and throughout the United States, including the 2019 Washington D.C. March for Life Rally, and was the keynote speaker at the 2019 Rose Dinner. She has been interviewed by CBN, EWTN, Live Action News, Focus on the Family, Dr. Ben Carson, and many others. She has spoken to students in Toronto, at Princeton, at the University of Chicago, and several times at the Cardinal O’Connor Conference for Life at Georgetown University. She is featured in the video “What Is Abortion?” 2nd Trimester Abortion – Dilation and Evacuation, and participated in the Face to Face video series by Live Action.
Dr. Aultman was the lead author of “Deaths and Severe Adverse Events after the Use of Mifepristone as an Abortifacient from September 2000 to February 2019” and is a co-author of “Mifepristone Adverse Events Identified by Planned Parenthood in 2009-2010 compared to those in the FAERS and FOIA.”
Lauren Eden
Ambassador Exclusive
At the age of twenty-one, Lauren Eden was surprised to learn that she survived a second trimester dilation and evacuation (D&E) abortion. Not only was this news shocking, but the series of miracles God did to save her life also confirmed that God had a unique purpose for Lauren’s life.
Although she knew she was called to share her miraculous birth story, Lauren was waiting on her mom to be ready. She spent 19 years in full time ministry, serving three churches in the Atlanta area, with a focus on Next Gen Ministries. In 2023, with her mom’s blessing, Lauren began sharing her story full time.
Lauren’s passion is using her voice to help others understand the truth about abortion, being a voice for other abortion survivors and the preborn, and helping people understand the church’s role in coming alongside women who find themselves in an unplanned pregnancy. She considers herself a champion for life and for the next generation.
Lauren lives in the Atlanta area with her husband David and their three boys.
