Thank you so much for volunteering to play LWM Welcome to All Bingo – 2024 Edition!
If you have not already completed the Living Water Ministries BINGO interest form, please do so HERE.
The game will begin on August 1, 2024. By filling your BINGO card you will raise $500 for Living Water Ministries which will be doubled through our Welcome to All 1:1 Matching Gift Challenge. We believe money should never be an obstacle to camp attendance and beginning in 2023 invited families to choose the price that works best for them. With this pricing structure, we hope to balance the realities that camp does take financial resources to occur, with our desire to make camp financially inclusive to everyone! Living Water Ministries extends a Welcome to All! YOU are helping make that happen and we are so grateful!
Living Water Ministries is dedicated to sharing the gospel with all of God’s children. We’re passionate about it, and we’re passionate about removing obstacles for children to attend our programs. Over 1400 campers have been awarded $545,000 in scholarships since 2015. And with our new Welcome to All pricing structure, this number will grow significantly!
If after reviewing these materials, or at any point you have questions, please reach out to Beth Paulo at 586.980.7766 or beth@elcalivingwater.com

Hi! I’m playing a game of BINGO to raise money to support an awesome organization and to help make camp accessible to all who want to attend! I’m hoping you can help me cover one (or more) of my Bingo squares and help me reach my $500. I would be grateful, and I know my friends at Living Water Ministries would be too! Here’s what my Bingo card looks like and which spaces I still need to fill. Let me know which space you’d like and then I will send my donation link. Thank you!
Hi! I’m playing a game of BINGO for my favorite summer camp and hope you can help me fill up my BINGO card! I really believe in Living Water Ministries and the work they do.

Hi! I’m playing a game of BINGO and raising money to help send kids to camp – a place where kids can be kids, and where they can learn about the love of God through an awesome community! Please select a square or two to help fill up my card and reach my $500 goal. Here’s what my Bingo card looks like and which spaces I still need to fill. Let me know which space you’d like and then I will send my donation link. Thank you!
Following is sample text you can copy and paste into a Facebook post. Attach a photo of what your Bingo card looks like and what squares are available. Once someone comments on your post, forward them your link via text or messenger. Then update your card by deleting the existing photo of your bingo card and replacing it with a new photo of the card that shows the new square covered, and repost. Make sure to tag Living Water Ministries and reply to whomever comments on your post. This will give your post more visibility. Interestingly, while you are able to post your link directly to Facebook, photos are more likely to show up in a person’s feed than a link.
