Sports ministry - UA: Ukraine

Join a small, but experienced Sports Ministry team in OM to reach the new generation – children and youth – of Ukraine with the gospel. You will receive training in many aspects of sports ministry, including leagues, Bible studies, camps, and children’s ministry. You can work alongside local churches as they establish their own sports ministries. Whether you have extensive sport and coaching experience or just love to play, there could be a place for you here! We are currently involved in football, rugby, basketball, floorball and adventure sport – for men, women, children and youth. If you have a passion for sport and want to learn to use that in ministry this could be the place for you!

Training is offered in language, culture and ministry. Experienced athletes and coaches are also needed to help train leaders as this ministry expands.
