A NIGHT TO CELEBRATE

Dear Friend,

I want to personally invite you to a night that means the world to me — the dedication of House of Resurrection.

God is doing something extraordinary here. Every single week, men, ministers and marriages from across the nation walk through our doors and experience true, lasting freedom in Jesus.

That’s why this night is more than just a celebration — it’s also a chance to honor the faithful partners and friends who helped us get here. If that’s you, we have something special planned to say thank you.

But we’re not stopping here. On this night, we’ll have some fun stories, share a few things to come and of course, dedicate it all to the Lord.

I hope you’ll come for some good food, good friends, and a front-row seat to a space Jesus is using to change lives.


Blaine + Lori

P.S. If you can’t join us in person due to schedule or distance, we’d still love to celebrate with you — from wherever you are. There’s a spot on the RSVP form to let us know you’ll be honoring the moment from afar, and we have some special gifts we’d love to send your way as a thank-you for being part of this story. You matter to us — and to this mission.
