The Anglican Diocese of Masvingo is set to host a fundraising golf tournament at Masvingo Golf Club on October 19, 2024 to raise funds for the construction of a house for the Diocese’s Bishop.
Speaking to TellZim News, one of the event conveners Faith Mazana said the tournament aims to bring together golf players and community members who are eager to contribute funds for the project.
“The event is open to golfers from surrounding cities and towns in Zimbabwe. It is intended to raise funds for the construction of one of the four sections approximately at US$10 000. The house has four sections designed to accommodate bishops and clergy during visits. One of these sections will be named ‘Golf Section’ in honour of the golfers.
“Registration of the Fourball Betterball format requires an individual to pay US$25 and US$100 per team. The tournament provides an opportunity for locals to engage in competition while supporting the church’s initiatives,” said Mazana.
She also said there will be exhibition spaces for corporates, sponsorship and partnership opportunities.
The current Diocese Bishop of Masvingo is Bishop Reverend Osiward Mapika.
This year’s edition is running under the theme ‘Except the Lord built the house, they labor in vain those who build it’ (Psalms 127 vs 1).
Those who wish to participate in this year’s edition can get in touch with Mazana on +263 773044920.
