'The poor will eat and be satisfied. All who seek the Lord will praise him. Their hearts will rejoice with everlasting joy.
The whole earth will acknowledge the Lord and return to him. All the families of the nations will bow down before him. For royal power belongs to the Lord. He rules all the nations. Let the rich of the earth feast and worship. Bow before him, all who are mortal,
all whose lives will end as dust. Our children will also serve him. Future generations will hear about the wonders of the Lord His righteous acts will be told to those not yet born.
They will hear about everything he has done.'
Psalm 22:26-31
This passage really speaks to us right now as we have a real heart for those that are poor and poor in spirt. We also long to see all nations and people groups come to know our Lord Jesus as their Saviour and very best friend. Sports ministry offers generations of people the opportunity to find Jesus and follow Him as we relationally 'do life' with others. Our God is busy doing great things throughout the world and it's time for everyone to hear of His saving goodness!
Here is a taste of some of what He has been doing over the past month and may I encourage you to ask Him if He would have you to help us to help others reach multiple nations and generations for His glory.
Thanks so much for your ongoing interest in, prayer for and support of our work for God.
Stand Strong!

Ministry Growth
We are so grateful and thrilled to be partnering with teams and leaders in 15 different countries whom we have trained and now help mentor and support. In the past 5 months we have been able to launch new ministry teams in Kenya, Benin, Guinea, Togo, India, the Philippines, Tanzania and Rwanda. Despite some Covid-related challenges, most of these teams have begun community ministry and some have even multiplied by launching and training additional teams in different parts of their region.
Glory to God!
Could you help us to help these teams?

Thank you Lord
Here's how you could reach different generations
Boots, Balls & Bibles
Ministry Need
Great ministry requires great tools and despite numerous needs, we are asking everyone to pray about helping provide:
Boots - Footwear for those without so they can join in and play.
Balls - Footballs for teams so that they can missional engage.
Bibles - God's Word to crucially aid next step discipleship.
£10 secures a pair of boots per per person.
£10 provides a football for a team.
£10 enables a new believer to receive a Bible
Over the next 2 months, we would love to be able to support our partnering teams overseas with the following:
100 pairs of boots
200 footballs
500 Bibles
This will cost £8,000 and will make such a huge difference to ministry teams and individual lives. Could you provide a ball, a Bible and a pair of boots for just £30?
You can do so here
Thanks so much if you can!
