SUMMARY:Grow Week Featuring Evangelist Daniel Ritchie
DESCRIPTION:Hannibal-LaGrange University Announces Grow Week Featuring Evangelist Daniel Ritchie \nHannibal-LaGrange University is pleased to announce its annual Grow Week\, a series of special chapel services and events designed to encourage spiritual growth in the campus community. This year’s featured speaker is Daniel Ritchie\, evangelist and Vice President of the Southern Baptist Convention\, who has shared the hope of Christ with audiences across the nation. \nRitchie was born without arms\, yet God has used his life and testimony to impact thousands with the message of His grace. Speaking to more than 200\,000 people each year\, Ritchie points to God’s goodness through his personal story of faith\, perseverance\, and joy in Christ. \n“God has shaped my perspective to pursue a full life because I am defined by Him and His grace\, rather than the critical opinions of the world\,” said Ritchie. “If God has brought me to a place of contentment and joy in my visible difference\, then He is most able to do the same for anyone else.” \nGrow Week at HLGU will take place Tuesday\, September 2 through Thursday\, September 4\, 2025\, with events open to students\, faculty\, staff\, and the broader community: \nGrow Week 2025 Schedule \nTuesday\, September 2 \n• 11:00 AM – Chapel with Daniel Ritchie \nWednesday\, September 3 \n• 11:00 AM – Chapel with Daniel Ritchie \n• 6:30 PM – Night of Worship featuring the HLGU Chapel Band and Daniel Ritchie \nHLGU invites the public to attend the Night of Worship on Wednesday evening\, a powerful time of music and teaching led by the university’s Chapel Band alongside Daniel Ritchie. \nRitchie resides in Raleigh\, North Carolina\, with his wife\, Heather\, and their two children. Together\, they enjoy family movie nights\, traveling\, football\, and spending time outdoors. \nFor more information about Grow Week at HLGU\, please contact the Student Life Office at Michael.Dixon@hlg.edu or call (573) 629-3026.

SUMMARY:HLGU Theatre Department Children's Show - City Mouse\, Country Mouse
DESCRIPTION:City Mouse\, Country Mouse \nBy Brian D. Taylor \nSeptember 26\, 2025 at 6:30 p.m.\nThe Loft\, L.A. Foster Student Center\, HLGU Campus \nWhen country mouse Sam unexpectedly invites his urban cousin Alex to visit\, Alex hesitates—but puts family first and ventures out of her comfort zone. He arrives to a world without Wi-Fi or indoor plumbing—clueless and completely out of his element. Overwhelmed\, he scrambles back to city life—but guilt soon propels him to return the favor and host Sam in the hustle and bustle of urban living. Now it’s Sam’s turn to feel out of place: his discomfort reaches hilarious peaks\, especially in a cringe-worthy sushi restaurant scene. In the end\, both must admit there’s no definitive “better” when two vastly different worlds collide.

SUMMARY:Free Society Event: “Facing Giants” with Chloe Cole
DESCRIPTION:Hannibal-LaGrange University invites students\, alumni\, and community members to attend a Free Society event featuring national youth advocate and speaker Chloe Cole on Wednesday\, March 25\, 2026\, at 6:00 p.m.\n\nChloe Cole will present on the theme “Facing Giants\,” addressing the complex questions and challenges young adults face today surrounding identity\, purpose\, culture\, and conviction.\nAt just 21 years old\, Cole is a nationally recognized youth advocate who speaks openly about her personal journey and her faith in Jesus Christ. After beginning medical gender transition at age 12\, she later came to the realization that she wanted to embrace who she was created to be—a woman—and began detransitioning as a teenager. Today\, Cole shares her story to help protect children\, inform parents\, and guide her generation toward truth\, healing\, and human flourishing.\n\nDuring her presentation\, Cole will explore the many “giants” students encounter—situational\, emotional\, cultural\, political\, and ideological—and challenge attendees not to fear these obstacles\, but to confront them with courage and conviction. Her message emphasizes that growth\, healing\, and victory come only when individuals are willing to face the giants before them.\n\nThis event is part of HLGU’s Free Society programming\, which promotes the ideals of a free society by emphasizing three foundational pillars:• A democratic form of government• Free market economic systems• Cultural institutions such as the church\n\nAll Free Society events approach these principles through the lens of a biblical worldview\, which is central to Hannibal-LaGrange University’s mission.\n\n– Tickets: $15– Ticket Sales Begin: Monday\, February 23\, 2026\, at 8:00 a.m.– Purchase Tickets: https://www.hlg.edu/\n\nFor more information: Contact Charlie McKeon at 573.629.3260 or charlie.mckeon@hlg.edu\n\nJoin us for an evening of thoughtful dialogue\, personal testimony\, and meaningful conversation as we engage difficult questions and seek truth together.

SUMMARY:Spring Theatre Production - Neil Simon's Rumors
DESCRIPTION:The Hannibal-LaGrange University Theatre Department is pleased to announce its spring production of Rumors\, a fast-paced and wildly entertaining farce by acclaimed playwright Neil Simon. Performances will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday\, April 16 through Saturday\, April 18. \nThis hilarious comedy unfolds as several well to do couples arrive at a beautifully appointed suburban home to celebrate their friends’ tenth wedding anniversary. Upon arrival\, they are met with a series of alarming and absurd discoveries: the domestic staff is nowhere to be found\, the hostess has mysteriously vanished\, and the host\, who happens to be the deputy mayor of New York City\, has suffered a minor gunshot wound to his earlobe. \nAs panic sets in\, the guests scramble to protect their reputations by keeping the evening’s incidents hidden from both the police and the press\, leading to a cascade of misunderstandings\, quick-thinking cover-ups\, and comedic chaos. \nMore information about tickets and pricing will be released soon. \nFor additional details about Rumors or any upcoming HLGU theatre productions\, please contact the HLGU Theatre Box Office at (573) 629-3182 or boxoffice@hlg.edu
