This Saturday, 19th March 2022, the House of Majesty, previously Beacon Ministries, will host what is expected to be a very well attended stroke play golf tournament at the Lusignan Golf Club.

Under its founder and past Vice President of the LGC, Pope Emanuel London, the House of Majesty has been successfully hosting golf tournaments since 2013. Prizes in past years were among the richest annually, and this year promises to be no different.

A statement from LGC Vice President Paton George has said, “The Lusignan Golf Club and its executive committee are happy with our progress this year. Building off a very successful 2021, the golf club is on track to deliver another year of value for its members and guests. The club wishes to remind everyone that our gates are always open for families to come and enjoy our relaxing atmosphere, whether they come for golf or other events, or just to enjoy the environment. Last week we celebrated the birthdays of two of our senior members, Robert Hanoman and Pandit Rabindranauth Persaud. We are happy to have this week’s House of Majesty anniversary celebration proceed last weekend’s successful birthday celebrations. Weekly tournaments are expected to follow in the weeks leading up to a full weekend of golf and entertainment at the Lusignan Golf Club.
One of the activities the club is excited about is the launch of its youth outreach drive, chip and putt competition – details for the full list of Easter activities will be shared soon. The tournament will be a celebration of the Ministry’s 26th year of service – an organization which prides itself on uplifting troubled youths, and has a track record of reaching its goals. In the golf arena, the Beacon Ministry House of Majesty has produced Guyana’s number one female golfer, Shanella London, who in 2013 became the first foreign-born female golfer to win the coveted Suriname Open Female first prize. She repeated as female champion in 2016.
The Ministry also has one of the hottest golfers and likely most improved golfer of 2022 in Eureka Giddings. Its founder, Pope Emanuel London, has also won his fair share of prizes both here and abroad since joining the Lusignan Golf Club in 2012.
Registration is open to members and non-members until noon on Friday, 18th March. The tournament will be played at two intervals to accommodate all golfers, the first set tees-off at 7:30am and the second at 12:30pm.
