Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church
Hot Springs Village, Arkansas
The work of Catholic Charities of Arkansas is varied and far-reaching in its scope as it reaches out a helping hand daily to the poor, the dispossessed, and those who are victims of natural disasters.  Because of recent federal mandates with regard to adoptions, mandates that we, as Catholics, could not in conscience follow, we have lost needed financial help for our Adoption services, which makes the annual Bishop McDonald Catholic Charities Golf Tournament such an important fundraiser.

The Tournament will be held on Monday, September 16, at the Maumelle Country Club in Maumelle, Arkansas.  We need our parish golfers to step-up and play in this tournament.  There is a choice of a morning or afternoon tee time. The cost for each individual person is $75 (as the parish will co-sponsor each person by paying the remaining cost of $75, for a total of $150). Our hope is to have as many as 12-15 players from our parish.  You can put together your own team (four people) or be put on a team.  Please call me (209-2502) or come to the parish office to get a registration form.  Those who turn in their registration to me or to the staff at the church office with your $75 check made payable to Sacred Heart Church (memo line: Catholic Charities Golf Tournament) will assure your participation on one of our teams.  I hope and pray that we have the largest contingency at this great fundraising (and fun) tournament.  By the way, it will pay-out first, second and third places for a least two flights.  It will be a memorable day for Catholic Charities and for those who play.  Please join me for this worthwhile endeavor to help so many who are in need.
