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 University’s mission.\n\n– Tickets: $15– Ticket Sales Begin: Monday\, February 23\, 2026\, at 8:00 a.m.– Purchase Tickets: /\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.

This 24-hour giving event will begin at noon on Thursday\, April 9\, and conclude at noon on Friday\, April 10. \nThis year\, HLGU is aiming for 250 gifts during the campaign.

This phase includes strategic upgrades to campus facilities\, further investment in academic and student‑life spaces\, and enhancements that support both the student experience and HLGU’s Christ-centered mission. Gifts to this initiative help ensure the university remains strong for generations to come. \nDonors may designate their gifts to Student Scholarships\, Bring Back the Legacy: Phase 2\, the HLGU Annual Fund\, or any academic department\, program\, or campus area they wish to support. Early gifts are welcome. Simply note “Day of Giving” when giving online or include it in the memo line of your check. \nLast year’s Day of Giving was a tremendous blessing\, with more than 265 gifts totaling over $120\,000. \n“We continue to see God’s provision through the generosity of our supporters\,” said Dr. Ray Carty\, Vice President for Institutional Advancement. “Every dollar given strengthens HLGU’s mission by helping students grow academically\, spiritually\, and personally. We are profoundly grateful.” \nMore details will be shared soon on HLGU’s social media platforms\, and supporters are encouraged to spread the word using #HLGUDayOfGiving. \nFor questions\, please contact Lauren Youse at 573.629.3126 or lauren.youse@hlg.edu.
