Who We Are
A SPORTS’ MINISTRY IN WESTERN ZAMBIA: The Western Province of Zambia has 16 districts and as a sports ministry, we aim to reach out to all the districts. Soccer balls are the tools we use to partner with football clubs in the rural areas, to be able to visit schools and to share the love of Jesus Christ. the project cyrus, founded in 2015, aims to provide an extensive bible study program in schools and football clubs to meet the spiritual needs of young people in the surrounding communities. And by doing this, people who have never heard about God will be introduced to the gospel..
Our Mission
To create a lasting impact for all the players we train that they can know God and trust in him, gain confidence in themselves, have sound life values and an access to education To fight fatherlessness in discipling coaches to be a role-model to the children they are working with to offer high quality sport training to children, teenagers and young adult, teaching them life values and the Gospel of Jesus, in the hope of seeing more high profile players sharing publicly and boldly their faith in the national and international sport world.

WHAT WE ARE ABOUT
In Mongu, capital of the Western Province, children growing up in poor communities, lack structured activities, parental guidance and are often unschooled, the families being unable to pay school fees. The main aim of the project is to give the children a structure and the means to develop through education and sport between the ages of 7 and 18. Although Zambia is a Christian nation and most people believe that there is a God, few understand the need for a change of lifestyle and a daily walk to grow into Christ likeness. Children are exposed to alcohol very early and the rate of teen pregnancy is high. Therefor we chose to work on these 3 angles: sport activities, school sponsorship and Bible discovery.
Education Sponsorship
Need: finacial access to education Goal: Give every child an opportunity to complete their education Our solution: By ensuring all players are enrolled in school, attending and striving in their learning, we know they will have better chances in the future to find stable employment and break the cycle of poverty they were born in. ..
Sport
Need: structured activities and parental guidance. Goal: Transform the communities by enabling kids to dream bigger and step out of the poverty cycle. With the proper training some could reach professional sport level. Our solution: Team sport is not only for leisure and health, it offers children numerous life values like respect, perseverance and fair-play. Being occupied in structured activities, and being encouraged and disciplined by the coaches, they are less likely to fall into alcohol abuse or teen pregnancy. .
Descipleship
Need: Bible understanding, personal faith and discipleship Goal: Create true disciples of Jesus who are able to read and understand the Bible and share the Gospel wherever they go. Our solution: We believe that without faith there is no hope, and teaching these children and their families how to have a personal relationship with Jesus the saviour, will transform the community in a deeper level than just socio-economic. Our teams have Bible discovery sessions on the field with their coaches and receive home visits for personal encouragements.
