Kirk Anderson, Chair of the Fund for Leaders Golf Classic, writes:

We have some BIG news related to our event. A member of a Grand Canyon Synod church, excited by the increased number of candidates seeking ordained ministry within the Synod, will match all donations up to $20,000. Pastor Jacqueline Pagel, Bishop’s Associate for Candidacy, is quite excited about the possibility of having $40,000 to assist these Seminarians.

 Last year, although unable to hold the annual golf tournament due to the pandemic, we raised $20,700 from donors like you, in support of our seminarians and the Fund for Leaders. This year, when combined with the scheduled tournament on November 15, we hope to raise $28,000, as well as another $20,000 from the matching grant.  

I’m writing on behalf of the growing number of candidates for ordained ministry within the Grand Canyon Synod. Pastor Jacqui Pagel, Assistant to the Bishop, reports that thirty students are currently at various stages of their Seminary education. When Pastor Jacqui began working with seminarians, the synod had only three candidates. Yes, the Spirit is at work in the Grand Canyon Synod! 

Two Fund recipients share their appreciation:

It is obvious our donations make a difference. 

Please be as generous as you are able. Your check needs to be made out to the Grand Canyon Synod with the words 2021 Fund for Leaders Golf Classic on the memo line. Mail your donation to Kirk Anderson, 986 N. Maverick Trail, Dewey, AZ 86327. Or donate online here and be sure to put 2021 Fund for Leaders Golf Classic in the note/memo line as you go through the form.

Our prayers go out to these Seminarians, that they be sustained in their studies.

Blessings!
