Note: I know many of you are on vacation. Happy Vacation!!!
But I also know how connected we are to these gadgets called smart phones:) Even if you’re soaking on the beach under an umbrella or in the mountains – enjoy!
The fun is about to begin! It’s time for our Annual Golf Tournament!
This year, it’ll be July 28th! (If you want to play, let me know. I have a few more slots left. )
Regardless if you play or not, please don’t delete this post – We need you!
Luncheon following Golf
Last year following play, we held a luncheon for the players. At this luncheon, I shared the gospel and way of being right with God. We had someone share her testimony of how KGM Bible studies have transformed her walk with Jesus – empowering her to be delivered from a prescription drug addiction. IT WAS POWERFUL. (Such courage for to her share.)
We had men and women – far from God – comment to me or either their team captain that this ministry gave them a desire to take another look at “organized religion.” Others said, “I want to know their God.”
So you see, it’s not just golf. It’s ministry – reaching an unreached people group right here in our own corner of the world.
Last year, your donations of drinks/sodas, to peanuts to Tee Sponsorships to prizes – helped us tremendously. We are not supported by tithes and offerings like your local church. So because of fundraisers like the golf tournament – we were able:
- to afford the workings of our Women’s Conference far before registration ever opened in Dec.
- to have quality speakers for our luncheons. (We pay our speakers.)
- to continue doing ministry like offering you blog post devotions and new resources.
(Keep in mind all donations: in kind or monetary – are tax deductible! We are a 501(c) 3 organization. Players can receive an 80% tax deduction of the cost to play!)
1st: PRAYER – we need your prayer support. Pray for the weather AND temperature. (Did I mention this thing is July 28th?) Pray that the players who do not know Jesus will sense something different about us and would desire to know Him personally – following up on that desire by accepting Him personally and getting plugged in to a local church.
2nd: Drinks Last year, someone generously donated waters, soft drinks and Gatorade’s for the players to have during play – which normally lasts 5 hours.
Would you be willing to buy an extra case of water or drinks when out doing your shopping? Every bit counts.
3. The Cart Girl fee – the course requires us to use their cart girl to the tune of $150. (Yeah, whatever. We just submit and do it.)
4. Appreciation Bag
My children and I filled the Appreciation bags last year! Lots of fun!
P Planters Peanuts – This is the perfect size!
Last year, a local dentist, Dr. Coker donated toothbrushes! (By the way, he’s my dentist now!)
Prizes for our winners – This was our Prize Board last year. We have 2 flights based upon skill level. We give prizes to our 1st and 2nd place winners in BOTH flights.
