Who We Are
Our History
Founded in 2025 by Zach Golden, Golden Light Ministries Inc was created from a heartfelt calling to serve at-risk youth both locally and globally. Recognizing the urgent needs faced by young people at home and abroad, Zach took action by assembling a dedicated board of directors who share his vision. In October, the board assisted Zach with creating bylaws and filed for 501(c)(3) status to establish the ministry as an official nonprofit. As part of the bylaws, the board voted unanimously to make Zach the Executive Director of Golden Light Ministries Inc.
Together, they are committed to advancing the organization’s mission: to provide hope, support, and opportunities for at-risk youth—wherever the need arises, God willing.
On January 31st, 2026, Zach will be leaving for Ecuador to begin his immersion into the culture and start working directly with local youth. His goal is to shine Jesus’s light to the people of Ecuador, building relationships and making a positive impact from the very start of this journey.
