Shields of Christ

It's that time of year again. The Annual Shields of Christ Golf Tournament is our only fundraiser. This golf tournament raises money for our ministry to be able to bring our brother and sisters first responders closer in their faith with God. We invite everyone to join us and swing a golf club for the Shields of Christ.

We invited anyone and everyone to purchase a golf hole sign to promote your business or organization or to show support for a loved one, or to memorialize a loved one. You can purchase 1 or 18. Great food, fun, and prizes and an amazing day of fellowship with one another.

THIS DAY RETREAT IS OPEN FOR SHIELDS OF CHRIST MEMBERS ONLY.

“Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe.”

This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118: 24)

The greatest miracle the world has ever seen is coming.

As we begin Holy Week, remember the sacrifice that is coming. The sacrifice that will save us from the darkness. Jesus, I will walk by your side, and I carry your cross and shoulder your pain as you carry my sins to your death. I will praise you for your mercy and glorify the sacrifice you have made in my name. Amen.

Almighty God, you have created
us out of the dust of the earth:
Grant that these ashes may be to
us a sign of our mortality and
penitence, that we may
remember that it is only by your
gracious gift that we are given
everlasting life; through Jesus
Christ our Savior. Amen.

Matthew 4:19

And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

"We are placed in our different ranks and stations, not to get what we can out of them for ourselves, but to labor in them for Him. As Christ has worked, we too have but to labor in them for Him. As Christ has His work, we too have ours; as He rejoiced to do his work, we must rejoice in ours also." St. John Neumann
