Faith Under Fire: Hope Survives Through Your Support

This year, we’re more determined than ever to bring you an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime event filled with powerful testimonies, big announcements, and exclusive opportunities. Due to recent unconstitutional funding cuts resulting from religious discrimination by the state of New Mexico—simply because we are a Christ-centered organization—we weren’t able to welcome a big celebrity speaker as we have the past two years.

That’s why we need your support now more than ever to fill this event and make a lasting impact. We’re working harder than ever to ensure an unforgettable experience that celebrates hope, life, and natural womanhood in the Borderland. Join us and be part of this inspiring night! Don’t miss out—hope is alive, and together, we can continue this vital mission.

Gala Speakers

Sister Mary Gianna

Sister Mary Gianna, a Columbine High School survivor, went “from none to nun” after narrowly escaping the most significant and first major school shooting in the United States 25 years ago. Raised without faith, she found God during her darkest moments. Now a member of the Disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, she devotes her life to sharing Christ’s love and mercy.

Claire Culwell

Claire survived a late-term abortion. Her twin did not. Filling in for Melissa Ohden, Claire shares a message of forgiveness, redemption, and the humanity of the unborn. As an internationally known pro-life speaker and author, she exposes how abortion hurts women. Claire lives in Austin, TX, with her family and has been featured on Fox News and Focus On The Family.

Mark Cavaliere

Mark is the Founder and CEO of the Southwest Coalition which he started in 2015. With the support of the Las Cruces community, he quit his job the following year to focus his entrepreneurial drive into full-time pro-life ministry to help moms be heroes across the Borderland, always seeing Guiding Star centers and a maternity home as the endgame.

“We must not be surprised when we hear of murders, of killings, of wars, of hatred. If a mother can kill her own child, what is left but for us to kill each other.” ~ Mother Teresa
