Sports connects with the community

SIM’s ministry Sports Friends is helping churches in Africa and Asia know how to use sports as a tool to connect with people, share The Good News and plant churches.

I interviewed a couple of Sports Friends staff here in Thailand, as we stood in the soccer field while a training session was going on.

Jill, second from left, leads Sports Friends in Thailand, along with Graham and a co-worker in the ministry.  I have known Graham and his wife Lori for over 15 years from when I served on the board of their ministry MAI.  They are now partnering with SIM in Thailand, so it was great reconnecting.  They had been living in Charlotte.
