All About Us Who We Are
I was very excited to join the board of GenOn during the year of its 50th anniversary. In this age of quickly changing technology and with the explosion of social media, GenOn has the ability to reach and help more families and faith communities than ever before. —Tom Kanavy
GenOn Ministries is led by a dedicated staff and Board of Directors, and over 100 regular volunteers. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that is funded by training events, resource sales, individual donations, and churches that intentionally partner with us in ministry. Partner churches 1) have an active LOGOS ministry, 2) make regular donations to GenOn Ministries, and 3) express and live out a commitment to the partnership. A Church Partnership Form for your church and a list of Partner Churches, can be found on our Partner Churches page.
