Ministry Best Ball Golf Tournament and Cookout
You are invited to The Victoria Area Men In Ministry Best Ball Golf Tournament and Cookout, which will be Saturday morning, April 14th at Riverside Golf Course in Victoria. Members of all Methodist churches and their families, friends and relatives (both men and women) are invited to play. There will be 4 person golf teams which will be assembled the week before the tournament from those signing up (you do not have to assemble your own team). You do not have to be a great golfer to play as everyone will hit from the spot where each best shot of the 4 golfers was hit. You would need to be at Riverside Golf Course to check in at 715 AM on April 14th as the golfers will tee out from different holes at the same time at 8 AM. The fee for playing, payable on the day of the tournament at the golf course is $46, of which $41 is payable to Riverside Golf Course for green fees and cart rental. Team prizes will be awarded for the top teams and for closest to the pin and longest drive holes. After the tournament (and here is the best part!), the "Dream Team" will whip up their normal AWESOME charcoal burger and fixins' cookout for us as they have in the past and the great fellowship will flourish in the Riverside Golf Course picnic area hosted by the First Victoria Men In Ministry! If you can't come for the golf, come eat off the "Dream Team".

To signup, call, text or email Milton Chapman at 361-571-1091 or at [email protected] with each player's average golf score on 18 holes by Wed April 11th. Please come for the awesome fun and fellowship!

MM Pork-steak Fundraiser - Success
Click here to see write-up and pictures!

The Men In Ministry Group of our Church raised over $2300.00 in its 4th annual Men's Porksteak Fundraiser and sold a  record number of tickets.  It was a truly inspiring work effort by over 30 men and women to raise money for the Men's charities. The Men were very blessed and give thanks for all who supported the Men in their fundraising efforts to allow them to show the love of Christ for others.
