LOVE BIG 2026 · October 22 · The Foxglove, Marietta
You filled the room, you met the children behind the numbers, and you said yes. Here's the film from the night and photos to keep.
What you made possible in one night
children cared for at the Jesus Loves Me Children's Center.
That's what your generosity on October 22 will do: 18,500 names in the book, each one a child someone loves, met with care in Jesus' name.
The film from the night
Every child who walks through the gate at the Jesus Loves Me Children's Center gets written down by name. This is the film we shared on October 22.
A note of thanks
This year we asked you to do something hard: set the big numbers down and meet the children one name at a time. Mercy, who came in weighing 11 pounds at two years old and now laughs. Emmanuel, carried six hours on his mother's back, who walked out on his own.
Thank you to everyone who came, gave, prayed and brought a friend. Thank you to our panel, Luke Burton, Dr. Mikey Bryant, Jordan Poole and Zach Brown, for bringing the names you carry into the room. And thank you to the sponsors below who made the night possible.
Every gift is a child someone loves, getting the care they need in Jesus' name. We're so grateful you're part of that story.
To everyone who made the night: thank you.
Every guest, sponsor, volunteer and friend who prayed, gave and showed up turned one evening into care for 18,500 children. We couldn't do this without you.
With love, the LIVE2540 team
