It has been a busy few months — so busy, we've not been able to send out a proper update. Everytime I got ready to click "send" I felt like we need to wait becuase there was someone else just around the bend joining
the team or making a change! 😅 So hold on, this email might be a little longer than most!
Tate is from Zimbabwe. Tate is in Albuqurque. Tate is husband, father, pastor. Passionate about soccer, about sports, about people, bur most importantly abotu Jesus is why we think Tate is great for Soccer
Chaplains United. Read more about Tate as co-chaplain for New Mexico United.

effort to simplify.
Monthly funding (General) is currently $1200/mo short of where we need to be, please consider becoming a monthly supporter or
increasing your gift slightly to help us cover the gap! The general fund covers my (Brad) salary and the organizational budget.
