• CrossTraining's Timothy Project: The Mountain Springs Church team that traveled to Swaziland this month delivered support and encouragement to Coach Xolani Moyo and his soccer players in more ways than one. This  Timothy Project post is best told in pictures and thoughts shared by the team themselves. "Xolani has a clear passion and vision for his sports ministry, Adventures in Missions.  His excitement is contagious.  Having the equipment (Timothy Project donations), especially the balls and jerseys, allowed him to better lead young men, and I can clearly see how the equipment allows Xolani's sports ministry to be even more effective in changing the lives of young men in Swaziland." shares one team member.

  • CrossTraining's Timothy Project: Liberia 2017 is grateful to have the opportunity to reach the people of Liberia again through Thomas Fahn's Liberian Institute For Empowerment (L.I.F.E.). Fahn recently sent an update on the state of Liberia in light of the latest events in the area.

  • For the Timothy Project: Senegal 2016 Final Update spring has been exciting time. The Center in Senegal has seen tremendous growth in the soccer program they're building.  The Center and its team members have been working hard to provide structured and well-run soccer clubs to the children both locally and in surrounding communities. This April, the Center hosted a tournament in St. Louis, Senegal.  Over 80 children participated in the all-day tournament.  These children came from The Center's kid's clubs, surrounding neighborhoods and even many boys from off the streets. Hosting tournaments to reach more children (ages 3-18) has been a deep desire of the team members.  This tournament was not the first this spring and hopefully only one of many in the coming months.
