Beyond The Norm
Going Beyond the Workplace
Beyond the Norm (BTN) is our giving-back initiative at Godlan. Owners Ed and Jackie have allowed their faith in God and Biblical principles to direct their lives, both personally and professionally. This same foundation is the base BTN is built upon.
Ed and Jackie had a vision of loving people and changing lives by doing things Beyond the Norm.
Our Vision
To see our entire world impacted for the Kingdom of God, one life at a time.
Our Mission
To demonstrate our love for God and others by bringing hope to those who need it most.
Our Purpose
To fulfill the two greatest commandments, love God, and love others.
A Team On Mission.
We’re proud to partner with:
Godlan began going on virtual mission trips in 2021 with the purpose of working together to change lives all over the world by raising funds to bring water, food, shelter, hope, and healing to a dark and dying world.
This is accomplished by coordinating a company-wide water and exercise challenge, through Fill it Forward and My Virtual Mission.
The location of the water well and the virtual mission are coordinated to be one and the same. For example, we built a well and sponsored orphans in Ethiopia and built a well and provided funds to rebuild a church/community center in India.
BTN Initiatives...
Goal:
Raise money to build clean water wells
A new location will be designated quarterly, for 4 locations per year. Godlan employees participate in this challenge by reusing a water bottle – filling it up and scanning it each time it is refilled, over and over. A pre-determined amount will be donated for each scan recorded.

Goal:
Meet exercise goal, Godlan donates $2500
Godlan employees log their daily exercise activities which propels our team forward as we travel virtually through the country in which we are building a clean water well. Godlan will donate $2500 if the team meets the exercise goal.
