Children are the future of our world and we believe they deserve our best. When you were a child, did you have a favorite teacher or Sunday School leader? What do you remember about them? Did he or she make you feel loved or give you practical tools for living? Did they change your life?
Most people in the U.S. would answer “yes” to one of the questions above. Some would even answer “yes” to the last and most important question. Around the world however, you would find quite a different picture.
Since 1993, Every Generation Ministries (“EGM”) has been helping churches around the world (of all shapes and sizes) develop vibrant, life-transforming programs for children. Believe it or not, most churches in the world have no resources with which to teach children. EGM helps them create engaging, children’s ministries that are connected to real life and run by adults who model the love and compassion of Jesus Christ.
On May 8th, 2009, Every Generation Ministries, a non-profit 501(c)3 charitable organization, is hosting the Spring Swing golf tournament, dinner and auction to raise funds to provide even more children around the world with the opportunity to hear and know that they are loved.
The Spring Swing will be held at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club in Mission Viejo, CA and will include over 350 participants. The day will begin with a golf tournament and conclude with an elegant Dinner Banquet, raffle and auction. Our Planning Committee, Board of Directors and generous supporters in Orange County are all working diligently to make this an unforgettable event with a significant impact on the lives of children worldwide.
Nothing screams time for a charity golf tourney and auction like a severe recession, right! (I suppose it’s not as crazy as God entering the world via a peasant baby born in a barn and spending more time with little children than heads of state). We are grateful (and somewhat amazed) to report that in face of this economy, Every Generation Ministries’ programs and reach have continued to grow. And all those children who are experiencing God’s love and healing for the first time through EGM need us to continue pressing forward.
A swing is simple and capable of bringing great joy to the life of a child. On May 8th your swing will be capable of changing the lives of children throughout the world for eternity. We invite you to be a part of building into the next generation of Christians around the world by participating in all or part of this year’s Recession Edition Spring Swing Golf Tournament, Dinner and Auction on May 8th.
