Pastor's Masters

Yesterday PCC hosted it's 5th Annual Pastor's Masters Golf Tournament in an effort to raise funds for missions work in Africa. I want to give it up for our Tournament Director, Rick Diynysious and the volunteers who put together yet another great tournament. In the tournament history, we have raised approximately $50,000.

The favorite part of the outing for me is the opportunity to meet a lot of business men from the community who don't attend our church, but love to come out and play golf. The tournament has become a real evangelistic outreach for our church. At least 1/3 of the players that were with us yesterday do not attend church regularly. What a great opportunity to raise resources for missions while also "doing" missions right here in our community.

Yesterday we raised $8,000 in the tournament and this weekend we will be taking a special offering for the African Missions project that involves digging water wells, building medical clinics and schools and most of all - planting churches.

All you PCCers out there please pray this week about what God would want you to do this coming weekend as it relates to helping the people of Africa. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
