Message from Angel Galvis, Mission Life Founder and CEO
“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.”
Romans 12:12-13 NIV
Can you believe it has been two years since the world shut down? How was it for you during this time of waiting, this period of uncertainty?
There’s a beautiful story in the Bible of a young shepherd who was promised a kingdom, but then he was sent back to care for his father’s flock while he waited for his time to come.
This shepherd was very diligent during his waiting time, becoming closer to God and preparing to face the gigantic challenges of his calling.
That’s what it felt like for us at Mission Life.
During the past two years we have been preparing for the gigantic work we have ahead, to help children meet Jesus and change the world.
While the world shut down, we continued developing relationships and programs to provide our children with tools to discover their talents and get prepared to face these giants in life.
One of those programs in development is Soccer Life, a soccer school for our child centers.
We know what they do during their growing years will set them up and help them find their way to realize their mission in life.
Becoming a soccer player is a dream for many children around the world.
Together with the students at Concord Christian Academy who are helping to raise funds through the Service Learning project and our partners at Formavida in Bogota, the first Soccer Life school will begin operating very soon! It will be part of the after school program.
This is both a dream for me personally and for Mission Life’s vision. I invite you to join me on my birthday this year to give these children the gift of soccer! Please join me in donating to my Facebook Birthday Fundraiser this month by clicking on the box below which will take you to my post.
