Rich Mullins

As Best As We Can Remember HiM

Remembering Rich

On October 21, 2022, Rich Mullins’ fans will gather to share songs and stories of a life well-lived. This year marks the 25th anniversary of Rich’s graduation to glory. Spend an evening singing along to Rich’s songs, watching previously unreleased concert footage, listening to a live band, and connecting with others. Together, we will pause to remember one who enchanted us with his music, and challenged us to “be God’s”. Seating is limited, so purchase your tickets early. Proceeds will go toward creating ‘Rich’s Room’, a permanent archive at Friends University in honor of Rich and the God he served. We will have more information on ‘Rich’s Room’ as we get closer to the celebration.
