Zion Team Tees-Up a Win at the Concordia Golf Outing

Pastor Mike Kettner, Jackson Stephens, Sam Bishop and Bryan Kress enjoyed a winning round of golf to benefit Concordia Lutheran Ministries’ Good Samaritan Endowment Fund. 

Concordia Lutheran Ministries (CLM) held its 21st Annual Golf Classic on July 14th and was blessed with the support of many sponsors and friends. Zion members Pastor Mike Kettner, Sam Bishop and Bryan Kress (together with friend Jackson Stephens) took first-place in the outing with an impressive score of 53 (-19). 

Hosted at the Treesdale Golf & Country Club, more than 200 golfers participated in a scramble-style tournament. Combined with a raffle basket drawing, a 50-50 drawing and premium silent auction items, preliminary reports show the event raised over $140,000. The proceeds benefit one of the most important and historic pieces of CLM’s mission, the Good Samaritan Endowment Fund. The fund underwrites confidential charitable care for residents and patients wh have limited or exhausted financial means. This fund has supported numerous local Lutherans -- including members of our Zion church family -- through the years.
