Sports Evangelism
This Year(2024)
For many years children’s soccer teams, also known as the Colts team are organized in the city suburbs and bigger towns .This is how great soccer talents on the world stages were discovered. Family Health And Education Foundation together with Living Faith Revival Center both of which were founded by Rev. Stephen Kwakye has been organizing soccer tournaments in the town of Suhum in the Eastern Region of Ghana. At this point, Rev. Kwakye and his friends have established a Soccer Academy in the village of Oboadaka near Suhum to offer an opportunity for kids in the cluster of villages around to turn their lives around .
Training ordinary impoverished and malnourished kids into Extraordinary Superstars in the next few years. The Soccer Academy was established in a few weeks ago and the results are overwhelming. The excitement of it has brought up hope in the entire villages around. This plan is also a means to evangelize to the kids who need the Lord Jesus Christ in their life. We planted a church in the Oboadaka village Six years and all the kids have started going to the church. Our ambition is to offer equal opportunities for these young kids to develop their individual talents. So much is needed for this special ambition.
A missionary in New York offered some few jerseys to Rev. Stephen Kwakye during his last visit to New York to get the vision started. The kids play with their bare feet and the need for soccer equipment is very urgent. Please help us with your donations and let’s all get together to make it a successful program for the Lord to Glorify His name in this part of the world
Since 2015, Family Health and Education Foundation Intl. has used soccer and basketball to draw thousands of children out to have fun and also listen to the word of God.
The biggest sport in Africa is soccer, however, basketball which is less known still attracts a great deal of attention. The method of reaching the kids and the youth who are running from the church is to use soccer and basketball games to reach them. Sports has become so popular that children in the communities look to us for more tournaments which draws a large crowd of people including the community leaders. We are looking forward to making sure that we are able to sustain what we have been able to start. We are therefore looking for churches, organizations, individuals, and the sporting world to partner with us.
