About this Event
For one evening at The Franklin Theatre, guests will gather to celebrate what happens when war does not get the final word. Children once known by violence are healing, growing, returning to school, discovering their God-given purpose, and becoming leaders for peace in their own communities.
When a child heals, Hope Wins!
Guests will enjoy light food, musical performances, meaningful stories, and an invitation to partner in the healing and restoration of children whose lives are being rewritten with hope.
Musical performances by Mike Donehey of Tenth Avenue North and Ruby Amanfu & Sam Ashworth.
Introduction by Jeremy Cowart.
