Golf, anyone?

Borrowing from 2 years of fruit bearing golf events (called "The Rubber Chicken Invitational") by The Daniel Foundation-Philadelphia, The Daniel Foundation-Seattle will be hosting a version of the same. Ours is called 'UNDERCOVER LINKS.' It will be held at Snohomish Golf Course (Snohomish, WA), Monday, August 15th, 10 am. Our mission? We are "covertly collecting cash to surprisingly support staff" from SGC. The Head Pro will identify who among his employees have urgent needs. tDf-SEA will give a check to the golf course. Then a gathering will occur and the covert mission will be revealed and designated employees will be "told the news". Typically golf events raise money for a non-profit in the local community. UNDERCOVER LINKS is about quietly raising funds to give back to employees who need a gracious, unexpected lift! Who does that? We do! We can't wait to see what happens in this process and what the result(s) will be. We've never done it this way before! Go ahead. Take a risk. Be hilariously generous. You are blessed to be a blessing. Live that outward focused life. But shhhh, let's preserve the element of surprise!

Relationships
The Daniel Foundation (tDf) is rooted in, and animated by, the Christian faith. The mission is best summed up in the greatest commandment, 'to love God and to love others.' It is for that reason that we accompany, encourage and offer assistance to men from every place on the spiritual spectrum and they make their way through life's many peaks and valleys.
Some men are best aided by providing an informal setting, often over a meal, in which to stop, settle and think out loud about relational, vocational or parental dilemmas they face. Others request practical assistance in one form or another. Still others seek help in developing, or simply exploring, how to initiate and sustain a meaningful relationship with Christ. The mission is as varied as the men with whom we visit.
In the end it is about relationships. Reflecting on the beauty and power of connecting, one pastor put it this way, "It is better to eat Twinkies with friends than broccoli alone"! I am a bi-vocational, school bus driving, "minister-at-large'. After 4 decades primarily serving in churches I came on board with tDf in 2016 and welcome the opportunity to finish strong in my missional calling.
*The types of things I can offer are:*Facilitating "Finishing Strong' mini-retreats*Challenging men in spiritual formation*Encouraging pastors in their leadership*Presiding at memorial services*Visiting widows*Supporting those in grief and loss*Organizing community service projects*Shepherding while teeing up a Titleist*Providing pulpit supply for churches*Networking to enhance our communities*Leading small groups
