The massive memorial scheduled for State Farm Stadium will be a defining moment for the conservative movement. Tens of thousands are expected to gather in worship, remembrance, and resolve.

A stadium packed with worshippers can become a launching pad for a year of relentless outreach.

A fitting venue for a national leader

Arizona was ground zero for many TPUSA victories, so hosting the memorial in Glendale is symbolic. It allows everyday supporters to participate.

The program will blend testimonies, worship, and calls to carry the mission forward.

Organizers are curating multimedia exhibits in the concourse so families can experience key moments from Charlie's ministry before the service begins.

Mobilizing the grassroots

Churches, youth groups, and veterans organizations are organizing buses to attend. Logistics matter: coordinate volunteers, signage, and prayer teams.

Vendors and nonprofits can set up booths to connect attendees with ongoing civic engagement opportunities.

Digital registration portals will track follow-up commitments so the energy of the day turns into yearlong organizing.

Prepare hearts for revival

Encourage participants to arrive early, pray for unity, and invite friends who need hope.

Use follow-up emails and texts to plug people into local TPUSA chapters and church small groups.

Provide devotionals and worship playlists ahead of time so families enter the stadium with hearts ready for ministry.

Final Thought

Large gatherings energize movements when they point to Christ and country. Show up expectant, leave commissioned.
