RandyDon golf outing June 6, 2011
We had a great time at our RandyDon golf outing on June 6th. In case you didn’t know, we changed the date from September to June and the location from the eastside of Grand Rapids to the southwest side. It worked out so much better, and I was very pleased with the managers of the golf club; they did an outstanding job. We raised over $4200.00. The money generated from this event will help us continue to travel into the inner cities or other areas that can’t afford travel expenses. For instance this past year, God had us minister in three cities where we witnessed over 75 young people that came to Jesus.
It was a beautiful day of golf, food, and fellowship. With your continued support and God’s blessing, we hope to grow the tournament into an annual event that allows us to expand our territories for the Kingdom of God.
Love,
Randy

“Randy, “well first of all I want to say you changed my life! On Sunday when you spoke something it hit me, my life needed changing. I always felt like nobody was there for me, and I needed to do things on my own and carry the weight of the world on my shoulders. When you shared your niece’s story I realized that I needed to give it ALL to God, not leave one thing out! I've always struggled with holding on to God and sharing about him, but today when four of my friends came to Christ, one of them being a former atheist, it brought tears to my eyes and I have never been so happy! I just want to run around and tell everyone about Jesus! Randy you are truly amazing; don't ever stop what you've got going!! I love you. love, your daughter in Christ.”

Hi Randy,
“maybe you remember me or not, but because of you and the one heart conference, I’ve gone above and beyond with my faith. I’ve never wanted to ever tell anyone my testimony before because I was so discouraged and embarrassed about it but since you visited buffalo for the conference I finally had the courage to tell some women at my church, I’m so happy because I’ve impacted people with
my testimony and now I have the greatest opportunity that I never thought of, where I’ll be giving my testimony at my church's winter festival for their school. I’m honestly so grateful you spoke the message you did at the conference because it strengthened me more to do something I was so scared of. I was always afraid of how people would react to how I became saved but now I know that I have an awesome testimony I can share with people that can bring them to Christ and change someone’s life. God has spoken to me this past week about being strong and letting me know I will always have him by my side. Today I will be giving my testimony and I want to say thanks to you for I don’t even know what, but you and your messages have impacted me enough to let God's light shine through me.”

Hey Pastor Randy! “I don't know if you remember me or not but I was one of the students who attended winter warm up this past weekend at fa-ho-lo camp grounds, from the east lansing group-Pastor Buzz is my youth pastor. First of all I wanted to thank you for such an amazing weekend. You impacted my life as well as so many others. I hope the God will bless you richly for everything you do. Second, I wanted to thank you especially for making such an impact on my sister, Rachel. Our parents divorced when she was 5 and I was 10. It has scarred and hurt us so much. Our dad got remarried a month later and moved to NC where his new wife's kids and her family lives. It has been such a bumpy road with just this. She also has adhd, but my dad doesn't agree so she can't get medicated for it. She has dealt with so much that she never should have had to. As her big sister I have failed to provide her a better life. But this weekend, I really believe you showed her that there are loving fathers out there. She has been talking about you and a couple of conversations you guys had nonstop since we have gotten back. It means the world to me that she looks up to you so much. Thank you so incredibly much!”

Update from Randy and Lori
Dear ministry partners, our prayers are that every testimony and picture we publish communicates the story of what God is doing all over this nation through RandyDon Ministries. Your role in this ministry is vital. Without your constant support of prayers and financial contributions we would not be able to travel and reach so many young people with God’s message of hope and restoration. Every dollar you contribute, every special note you write, and each prayer you breathe, keeps us going. We are truly grateful! Thank you again for all your prayers and contributions to RandyDon Ministries. Lori and I pray that God will richly bless you and your family as, together, we continue to inspire the youth of this generation. They’re worth it!
Reaching this generation for Jesus,
Randy and Lori DonGiovanni
