WHAT IS NIGHT TO SHINE?
Night to Shine is an unforgettable worldwide celebration event, centered on God's love, honoring and valuing people with special needs. This event is hosted each year on the Friday before Valentine's Day by churches across the globe, bringing congregations, communities, and families living with disability closer together in fellowship.
The Body of Christ is not complete without people with disabilities. People with disabilities are our Kings and Queens because God sees them as royalty, and so should we.

Our dream is to make this event part of the DNA of Grays Harbor. Statistically speaking, our friends living with special needs and their families are the largest unreached people-groups in the world. But when they hear that they are loved and that they have a purpose, it can change everything.
Our mission is to bring this need to light and become closer as a community, all while allowing the opportunity for those who live with disabilities to experience God's love and understand their value and worth as His image-bearers.
Our heart is to see every person with special needs celebrated through the local Church as an invitation to finding life-giving community.
