Fatherlessness is a huge problem in South Africa. Soccer gives us a platform to be involved in the lives of children who won’t necessarily be found in a church. Through soccer we share the Gospel and can be positive role models in the lives of these children.
Seeing young people from underpriveledged communities finding Hope and purpose in life through knowing their identity in Christ. Seeing lives changed, hope restored and eventually families and communities being transformed because of the power of the Gospel.
Our mission is to reach young people at risk by building long-term relationships through soccer, discipleship and mentoring.
The boys are all between 8 and 18 years old. Each practice includes prayer, skill training, a Bible-talk, a fun match and a mostly healthy snack. Weekly we do Small Groups with a specific focus in age groups. Once a term we organize a fun outing to build deeper relationships and expose them to Cape Town.
Future Stars is a soccer ministry with the focus on young boys in the community. We use soccer as a platform to share the Gospel, be involved in their lives and teach them life skills. We focus on the individual and personal growth and development of the children. Our hope is to see them growing up becoming responsible, God-fearing leaders in their communities.
In the community where we work, children are exposed daily to alcohol and drug abuse, gangsterism and death. Many grow up in poverty and in an unhealthy environment characterized by fatherlessness. Due to the absence of fathers, children seek affirmation and belonging in the wrong places. Gangs often become their role models and offer them a sense of brotherhood. There is a lack in healthy relationships and role models, as well as in true and consistent discipleship, hope, and future perspectives.
