“Kid’s Beach Clubs have given us an arm of outreach into the community and a place for people to serve the Lord! This past semester alone, our Beach Clubs saw more than 96 kids accept Christ. We’re working to expand our number of Beach Clubs this year. This is one of the best ministry investments I’ve experienced!”

I had no idea we could access elementary schools this easily. When I told my church, they jumped at the chance to influence kids in our community. KiDs Beach Club has been a huge success in influencing kids and getting our church members involved in community transformation.
Thank you for the great impact you are making for the
kingdom. I am excited and our church is excited to be a part of this awesome
movement.

KiDs Beach Club (KBC) has been a great outreach tool for Gateway Church. Through KBC, we are able to go into the local publics schools each week and minister to over 400 children who do not attend our church on the weekends. The book The Purple Cow suggests that sometimes organizations need to search for “out-of-the-box, creative opportunities to reach their desired goals and visions.” For Gateway Church, KBC is our “purple cow!”

I wanted to tell you that yesterday was a real answer to personal prayer... Julie came outside so excited and said that she had prayed asking Jesus to be in her heart, and that she wanted to be baptized!
I am friends with Julie's mom, and she is so like many of the people we all live near. Julie's mom was raised in a Christian home, believes that Christian clubs are good, and she was happy to have her two children go to Beach Club. You see she's never taken the kids to church... at all! They have managed to have both of their children involved in sports, dance, Brownies, all sorts of things but not church. I'd bring it up to her, and she never said she didn't want to go to church, she just hadn't gotten around to it yet -- "Maybe after soccer season!" I had invited her to church with me many times, and to VBS, but there was always an inconvenience about going.
Because of Beach Club and the great work, lives are being changed! Julie's mom called me yesterday and said this is confirmation for her that she really has neglected teaching her children about God. She now plans to start attending church and to let Julie get baptized. Praise God!
