KNCSB Golf Tourney Draws 85

By John Lucas

November 2009

The KNCSB Baptist Men’s Annual Golf Tournament was held on Saturday, September 26, 2009 at Lake Shawnee Golf Course, Topeka, Kansas. Eighty-five players played from thirteen churches. The tourney started at 9:00 a.m. and concluded mid-afternoon following a luncheon,  fellowship, and awards time.

The tourney began with a prayer by John Lucas, KNCSB Baptist Men’s Director, for appreciation for the golf course staff and that the players, as golfers, enjoy the tourney and its opportunity for Christian fellowship.

Players donated $375.00 to KNCSB boys’ and men’s ministry while enjoying the tourney fellowship. The tournament is one of KNCSB’s annual “sports evangelism” events where men gather and share their life experiences and share their faith in Christ. Players were very positive in indicating their appreciation for the event and the opportunity to fellowship with other men and enjoy a time of fun. The tourney next year will be held on September 25, 2010.
