April 20,2013 was a great day of celebration!  It started with Family and Friends at 10:30 that morning.

After the A-Day game, we had a cookout to wind up our year of 75th/50th Anniversary celebration.  There were over 150 students, alumni, family and friends at each event.  What a beautiful bond we share in Jesus Christ and in the ministry at the Auburn Wesley Foundation!

The Wesley lawn was filled with friends.

The Tiger/Tide Challenge: It's on like Donkey Kong!

March 24, 2012

March 24, 2012; Birmingham Marriott; 7-9 pm

I am excited to announce our first annual Tiger-Tide Challenge!  The purpose of the Tiger-Tide Challenge is to create a fun event to raise programming dollars for our United Methodist campus ministries at Alabama & Auburn.  The evening will include Jim Dunaway serving as the referee, Brian Miller as Auburn’s coach and Gorman Houston as Bama’s coach, lots of good-natured competition, great food and an opportunity to invest in the lives of the young women and men on our state’s largest campuses.  You and your guests will have a great time.

Here’s how you can help:  We are looking for people like you who love Auburn and love the United Methodist Church or The Church to either:

1. Sponsor a table for 10 for $500 and then invite others to join you at your table,

2. Attend the evening as our guest  to learn more about the impact the Auburn Wesley is making on campus, or

3. Make a donation or pledge before to support your campus ministry.

With your help, we can support the long-term health & viability of the Auburn Wesley for this generation of college students and beyond.

Please feel free to call or email me with questions or responses or suggestions of others to contact.  The official site for the event is www.tigertidechallenge.com to RSVP before March 20th or pledge before march 24th for the event.  We will have the event LIVESTREAMING.  There will be a tab at http://www.tigermotionproductions.com/ to watch.   Also, you can go to our facebook group during the event to keep up with “the score” and make your pledge there!

Thank you for making the first ever Tiger-Tide Challenge a success.  War Eagle!
