Golf course
Golf course with lake view...so beautiful!
Main house...built in the late 1800s. There is also a hotel attached as well as store.
Earlier this week, we received some devastating news in regards to our upcoming Golf Camp we are hosting in partnership with FCA from the States. The golf club we have reserved for the camp called a meeting to inform us that they are not comfortable with us using the name of Jesus or God and even went so far to say that they do not believe anything the Bible teaches. All of this comes just one week out from our camp!
We were disappointed to say the least but felt God had bigger and better plans. Boy...did He! So the next morning we refocused and called a fairly new contact we have made with a local Golf Club...Glasson Golf Hotel and Country Club. The manager and owner themselves met with us and were very sympathetic to say the least. They said "we have no issues with you sharing about Jesus and would like a copy of the Bible you are giving out for ourselves as well". Basically they offered us anything we needed (practice areas, food locations, media for our event)! So now... not only do we have a more beautiful and logistically speaking...greater place to hold the camp...we also got it for free! God is so good. Praise Him along with us for this great victory! Also...please be praying for our camp (April 6-9th) where we will be hosting 50 campers age 12-17 and sharing with them life lessons from golf as well as the greatest lesson...the knowledge of Jesus Christ!
Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.
-Proverbs 19: 21

Mary,
We rejoice in the wonderful way God continues to lead and direct. Have a wonderful camp. Look forward to hearing about it.
