In celebration of 25 years of life transformation through Africa New Life Ministries, we are honored to invite you to an exclusive anniversary evening in beautiful Lake Oswego, Oregon at Ironlight. This intimate gathering, limited to just 150 of our partners, will be an evening of gratitude, reflection, and vision for the future. Guests will enjoy a thoughtfully curated dining experience, a live auction, stories from Rwanda, and a special performance by Christiane Boukuru, who will share her extraordinary journey from being sponsored as a child to now stepping onto global stages she once could only imagine — a living testament to the power of your generosity. We would be deeply honored by your presence as we celebrate what God has done over the past 25 years and look ahead with faith to the generations still to come.
