The Next STEPP Center will celebrate its 33rd Anniversary Gala on Friday, October 30, 2026, at the Historic St. Petersburg Coliseum, with Grammy-nominated, nine-time Dove Award winner Nicole C. Mullen serving as the evening’s keynote speaker.
Themed “From One Generation to the Next,” the Gala will celebrate the God-given value of every life and the calling of families, churches, and communities to pass on a legacy of faith, hope, and love.
Mullen is widely known for her powerful testimony and music ministry. A Grammy-nominated recording artist and nine-time Dove Award winner, she made history as the first African American female recipient of the Dove Award for Songwriter of the Year for her signature song, “Redeemer.” At the Gala, Mullen will share a message centered on faith, hope, life, and the importance of what one generation passes to the next, along with several musical selections.
The Gala also will highlight the work of The Next STEPP Center and the growing network of churches, individuals, and community partners who make its ministry possible.
