Investing In A Life

Mentoring and discipling—investing in lives—is a core part of our ministry at Sports Outreach. We connect with people through sports and invest in their lives off the field in a wide variety of culturally appropriate ways. Through God's grace, our prayer is that their lives are transformed! Jessie King, who serves with Sports Outreach in Charlotte, NC shares Naomi’s story. "Naomi is a middle-school girl whom I mentor. Her grades have started going up; a direct correlation between the time that she didn't have anybody pouring into her and now that she does. I let her use a laptop and sit on a chair by my house so that she can have access to Wi-Fi and do her homework. If she ever needs help, she knows she can knock on the door and ask. It's amazing what being available to these families can do."
