SUMMARY:A Night with Bridgehaven Fundraising Gala
DESCRIPTION:A Night with Bridgehaven 2026\nJoin us for A Night with Bridgehaven as we gather to celebrate the life-changing work God is doing through the ministry of Bridgehaven. This year’s gala centers on stories of redemption\, restoration\, and hope—stories we see lived out every day as women\, men\, and families walk through our doors seeking compassion\, truth\, and support in the midst of unplanned pregnancies. \nThis evening is an opportunity to reflect on the profound impact Bridgehaven has on our community and to celebrate how God brings healing and purpose from brokenness. Together\, we will rejoice in lives restored\, families strengthened\, and hope renewed. \nDoors will open at 6:30 p.m. for our new pre-program social hour\, featuring check-in\, a photo booth for pictures with Al & Lisa Robertson\, dessert selection\, raffle drawings\, and fellowship. The program will begin promptly at 7:30 p.m. This event is a Dessert Gala\, so guests are encouraged to enjoy dinner prior to attending. \nThanks to the generosity of one of our donors\, this event is free to attend\, allowing guests to give freely throughout the evening as we work toward our $200\,000 fundraising goal in support of Bridgehaven’s mission.\n\nKeynote Speakers: Al & Lisa Robertson (Duck Dynasty)\nBridgehaven is honored to welcome Al and Lisa Robertson of Duck Dynasty as our keynote speakers for the 2026 Night with Bridgehaven Gala. \nAl is the oldest son of Phil and Miss Kay Robertson\, the patriarch and matriarch of the Duck Dynasty family. Lisa is his wife of 38 years\, and together they have spent more than 22 years sharing their story through ministry and speaking at marriage retreats\, pregnancy centers\, pro-life events\, and seminars across the country. \nLisa carries a powerful and deeply moving testimony that leaves a lasting impact on everyone she meets. Together\, Al and Lisa speak openly about brokenness\, restoration\, and the hope found through faith in Jesus Christ. Their story mirrors what we see daily at Bridgehaven—lives transformed through compassion\, truth\, and unwavering hope. \nGet ready for a memorable night filled with fun\, laughter\, tears\, and inspiration as we come together to celebrate what God is doing through Bridgehaven—and through each of you who make this ministry possible. \nSo sport your camo\, grow out your beard\, or dress it up with fancy beads—it’s a night for everyone as we celebrate life\, faith\, and the incredible impact of Bridgehaven.
