Bridgeway Church will serve as a host of the 2026 Night to Shine on February 13 in partnership with the Tim Tebow Foundation! This unforgettable worldwide prom night experience is centered on God’s love for people with special needs. It will take place at the Baptist Student Union on Mississippi State University’s campus. We are honored to join hundreds of other churches around the globe in welcoming every guest as a beloved image bearer of Jesus, making them feel truly special, seen, and celebrated. 

Night to Shine is hosted every year by churches on the Friday before Valentine’s Day. It is a free event for anyone with special needs, whether that be physical or cognitive, ages 14 years and older. The event will feature a red carpet entrance complete with a warm welcome from a friendly crowd and paparazzi, hair and makeup stations, shoeshines, limousine rides, karaoke, gifts, a catered dinner, a Sensory Room, a Respite Room for parents and caregivers, dancing, and a crowning ceremony where every guest is honored as a King or Queen – the way God sees them each and every day! 

We are also looking for people to help us put on this incredible event! There are many ways to serve – there’s something for everyone to get plugged into. Whether you enjoy greeting, dancing, photography, hair and makeup, serving food, or simply sharing a smile, we need your help to make this night one to remember for our guests! If interested in signing up, please follow the link below. If interested in donating food, services, or other materials, please contact Arey Hill at the email address provided below. 

Don’t miss the opportunity to be a part of something life-changing-for our guests and for you! Sign ups are live and we can’t wait to bring Night to Shine to Starkville!
