Be A G.O.L.F. PARTNER

---

BECAUSE WE ARE REAL! Over many years, we have had many critics from the spectators in the bleachers. Golf a ministry? It’s a joke! Following are some of the types of situations we have been privileged to be involved with due to the trusted relationship-building opportunities experienced by golfers and non-golfers alike. 

• Clergy get together for a day of golf, and denominational differences and racial miscalculations become irrelevant. At the same time, some have actually formed long-lasting inter-denominational and racial personal and ministerial relationships.
• Wives contacting us and asking if we could reach out to their husbands who love golf, thinking a G.O.L.F. Fellowship could be just the thing to get them to attend church as a family.
• Some years ago, during the mortgage crisis, we assisted numerous people from various churches with modifying and re-negotiating mortgages - NEVER WITH A FEE ATTACHED.
• Standing on a lesson tee only to realize while the student needed a lesson, they really were there to admit and come clean of the baggage they've been holding onto for many years.
• Test youth in discovering "Whose" and "Who" they are along with identifying their spiritual gifts. Then place these youth in internships matching their traits and giftedness.
• Bringing two guys together for a day of golf who are struggling financially, and they end up doing business together and helping each other out, and at times a lucrative venture has formed.
• Provide single mothers or spouses of service members with regular car maintenance and/or restored vehicles.
• Assist single mothers re-entering the workforce due to divorce or military casualty through our AdminiServe and Dress for Success community outreaches. We've been told how many churches they called for help or guidance, and we were the only ones to call them back.

We've been criticized for attempting too much or being all over the place. That what we do has nothing to do with golf. Golf opens the door and builds trusted relationships, what's so hard to understand! 

"We Do What Most Don't." 

• Ask for prayer; we really pray for you and follow up. 
• We inconvenience ourselves in place of personal gain.
• No one has ever been denied entry to a fellowship or outing due to a lack of funds.

Are we special or extra holy! Of course not. But like Saint Paul, we know what it's like to live in plenty, and we know what it's like to live in want. We do what we do to "Keep It Green" and Keep Us Grounded.
