AIS Haiti helps sponsor a youth soccer convention!

The Haitians have a proverb: With many hands, the load is not heavy (Men anpil, chay pa lou). We have been working for many years to introduce soccer ministry to churches in Haiti and have made tremendous progress going from zero to 78 teams in 5 years (That’s about 15 teams a year!). However, since the earthquake, we have heard that there are many who have started soccer ministries around the country and we would like to work together with them and help them in any way we can.

To this end, we have organized the first (that we know of) “Youth Soccer Convention 2011” to be held on October 22nd in Port-au-Prince. So far we have over a dozen organizations that have signed up, and we are hoping that many more will attend.
Please pray that by working together with other organizations we will be able to reach more and more youth with the Good News that Jesus loves them!
