2012 Boy’s U20 Outreach to The Czech Republic
Where: Breclav, Hodonin (southeast Czech)
When: July 23 – August 5
Cost: $3100
As part of a Seahorse ministry tour you will be challenged to consider what it means to be a sports minister and then given the opportunity to put into practice the lessons you have learned.
The Seahorses first visited Czechoslovakia in the late ‘80’s while it was still under communism and continued yearly ministry trips. Once the walls fell Seahorse missionaries moved to what became the Czech Republic in 1993 and began helping local churches use soccer as an outreach into their communities.
Our ministry on this trip will consist of: helping two churches run outreach soccer camps and playing matches with local youth or adult teams. Czechs enjoy their soccer and the opportunity to play against teams from other countries. As we play and spend time with teams after the game players and fans have a chance to hear the Gospel and connections are made with people from the churches.
Both of our church partners began doing soccer ministry with the helps of Seahorse missionaries and continued using soccer even as those missionaries returned to the States. They appreciate our teams coming to help and it is a big draw for the kids to have teams come from the US.
In addition to ministry activity we will do some sightseeing in the area and finish our trip with a full day in the capital city of Prague, one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Part of the plan for that day in Prague is to catch a Czech first division soccer match.
This is for you if you are looking for a challenge, an adventure, an opportunity to play soccer internationally, to grow spiritually and see God work in amazing ways.
