Hi, I’m Blaine. As the Pastor of Ministry Development at Bayside Granite Bay, part of my role is investing in our Married with Kids Ministry and leading our service projects. After touring Sierra Pregnancy + Health, it was clear to me there’s so much beyond medical care. They walk with families through multiple stages of life through resources like parenting classes, a fatherhood program, and even reproductive grief care. So when I heard they needed a golfer for the Capital Cup, I couldn’t pass it up. If you’ve met me, I wouldn’t be surprised if the first thing you learn is that I love golf, just ask my wife!

Joking aside, I have a real heart for families with kids. As a dad who has experienced pregnancy loss, I’ve felt and seen the real impact this place offers our community. That’s why I’m golfing for Sierra Pregnancy + Health at the Capital Cup Tournament: because our community needs these resources, with a care team rooted in Christ.

Through the Fatherhood program, SPH involves dads in the process while the baby is still in the womb. Even for a dad who feels “ready” to have kids, that’s a stressful time. If he’s facing an unplanned pregnancy, he could feel guilt, shame, or like this all feels like a mistake, like he won’t do well, and it would be “better” if he weren’t in the equation.

These dads are going through the same human experience we do, just a unique set of circumstances. No matter what the trouble is, these new dads need encouragement and support. That’s why having an available Fatherhood Coach while the mother is in her medical appointment is such a game changer. Not only does he get an encouraging sounding board and someone who can offer the hope of Christ, but it comes during such a critical time.

To sum it up: I love golf. But even more, I love seeing lives changed, families strengthened, and Christ shared. Please join me in supporting Sierra Pregnancy + Health. Your participation isn’t just about the donation; it provides momentum that fuels this campaign to be successful and shown to more people. Thank you for sharing this vision with me.
