will start with registration at 11:00am and first tee off at 11:40.
This is a CHURCHWIDE event. Not limited to golfers.
Everyone can participate by donating items for the baskets, buying tickets for the auction,
or coming just for dinner at 6:00pm.

This is a fun event. The golf is a scramble-format so you don’t have to be a pro golfer to play.

OPENING PRAYER
Our heavenly Father, We, your humble children, invoke your blessing on us. We adore you, whose name is love, whose nature is compassion, whose presence is joy, whose Word is truth, whose Spirit is goodness,
whose holiness is beauty, whose will is peace,
whose service is perfect freedom,
and in the knowledge of whom stands our eternal life.
Unto you be all honor and all glory;
though Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
