On Thursday, September 11th, we invite you to join us in Bend for a candlelight vigil to honor the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk.

Thursday, September 11th | 7:30pm Corner of Wall Street & Newport | Bend

Some candles will be available, but please bring more if you can.

Charlie was more than a leader — he was a light. He had the rare courage to speak to anyone, whether friend or critic, and he never shied away from honest dialogue. His deep love of America fueled his life’s work: inspiring a generation to defend freedom, live boldly in their beliefs, and know that it is honorable to stand for truth.

On college campuses across the country, Charlie’s presence gave young conservatives the strength to lift their heads high. He showed them that they did not have to hide, that their voices mattered, and that they had every right to believe in and fight for this nation’s founding principles. That legacy of courage, faith, and patriotism will continue to live on in all who were touched by his example.

This vigil is more than a gathering to grieve. It is a chance to remember a true patriot, to be inspired by his life, and to commit ourselves to carrying forward the values he lived and died defending. Together, let us shine our light into the darkness — for Charlie, for his family, and for the country he loved.
