• Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church recently returned from their time serving in Juarez, Mexico. On their latest trip they took a number of One World Play soccer balls. And recently sent some feedback to CrossTraining on this hybrid soccer ball. Namely, that the balls seem to work against the "goat heads" thorns that would normally puncture a normal soccer ball. They're great for the kids! In this environment, it's held up remarkably well. There are lots of "goat heads" here - which are like the prickly sticker weed things - and the ball has been covered in them...we just brush them off and keep going. [Our leader] thinks a regular ball would be flat by now. When you make a financial contribution to

  • This December, Athletes in Action (AIA) and a team of professional soccer players will travel on a soccer clinic and coaching and outreach trip to North Africa. The Timothy Project: AIA North Africa 2016 will feature Major League Soccer (MLS) and the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) players.

  • Not all Timothy Projects are about going overseas. Sometimes its about those who come to the U.S. Timothy Project: His Little Feet 2016 - Part 1 is one of those stories.
