2026 Divine Servant Award Recipients Announced

Milwaukee, WI - Wisconsin Lutheran College will present the Divine Servant Award to Willie and Korie Robertson and Sadie Robertson Huff during the Divine Servant Award Celebration on Friday, May 29, 2026. The event will take place at Discovery World in downtown Milwaukee beginning at 5:30 p.m.

Our 2026 recipients have starred in the hit reality TV shows Duck Dynasty and Duck Dynasty: The Revival, becoming influential figures in American culture who are known for their bold faith, commitment to family values, and philanthropic efforts. 

  • Willie Robertson, CEO of Duck Commander, has turned a small family business into a multimillion-dollar enterprise while maintaining a commitment to integrity and generosity.
  • Korie Robertson has played a key role in their family, often speaking about the importance of raising children in faith and cultivating a Christ-centered home.
  • Sadie Robertson Huff, the daughter of Willie and Korie, has emerged as a prominent Christian voice in her own right. A bestselling author, podcast host, and founder of Live Original, Sadie has become a role model for Christian youth. Her messages on identity, purity, and purpose resonate deeply with college students striving to live out their faith in an increasingly complex world. Sadie’s authenticity, transparency, and passion for Scripture make her an especially impactful speaker for the next generation.

Willie, Korie, and Sadie will challenge attendees to live faithfully and lead courageously in whatever calling God has placed before them. Because the collective impact of our recipients spans generations, the 2026 Divine Servant Award Celebration promises to be inspiring and uplifting for all in attendance.

Tickets for the event will go on sale December 1 at the early-bird rate of $350 per person or tables of ten for $3,500. Beginning April 1, tickets will be $375 each or tables of ten for $3,750. Sponsorship opportunities, which include a personal photo opportunity with the Robertsons, also will be available beginning December 1.

Wisconsin Lutheran College, a nationally ranked Christian college, established the Divine Servant Award in 2017 as an opportunity to honor individuals who exemplify qualities of Christian servant leadership and have exhibited Christian values throughout their lives of service. This honor is intended to be bestowed upon high-profile individuals, and the Divine Servant Award Celebration event serves as an awareness and fundraising event for Wisconsin Lutheran College.
