Winter Gala 2025: Christmas in the Highlands
Lenya Heitzig and Sheologie invite you to our Annual Winter Gala on Tuesday, December 2 at our Osuna campus. Doors open at 6 pm, welcoming you into a festive evening that will begin at 6:30 pm. This year’s theme, Christmas in the Highlands, is a gentle reminder to pause in the midst of a busy season often filled with noise and obligations and make room for the One who brings true peace. This Christmas, come rejoice that the light of Christ still breaks into the darkness—bringing hope to the weary, joy to the burdened, and purpose to every heart that dares to trust Him. Our prayer is to create a space where women are refreshed, encouraged, and awakened again to the wonder of Jesus—the true light of Christmas.
We are honored to welcome guest speaker Kristin Lenz, author of Adventure Awaits. Through honest storytelling and a powerful message, Kristin will encourage us to step into the unknown with courage and faith, trusting that God will meet us there with purpose, transformation, and deep, lasting joy.
The evening will feature a special time of worship, inspiring performances, meaningful moments, and a light supper served with tea (please note that tea service will not be available in balcony seating). You’ll also enjoy our Lovely Market—a curated collection of local vendors offering thoughtful, seasonal goods.
