"For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts
to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ."  ~ 2 Corinthians 4:6

When this light was in need of repair 20 years ago, the nonprofit Outer Banks Conservationists (OBC) was created to preserve and restore the national landmark. The OBC has spent more than two decades and nearly 1.5 million from private dollars restoring, maintaining and operating the lighthouse. The federal government is giving the lighthouse away as early as this fall, and the OBC wishes to become permanent steward of the Currituck Beach Lighthouse.
