What happens at a Pray Play Say group?
The 2 hour session will be split into two main sections. The
first 45 minutes will be an interactive time of bible study /
discussion. The remainder of the time will give everyone the
chance to get busy practically playing a number of different
sports.
What is the purpose of a Pray Play Say group?
The aim of the night is to support and encourage the young
Christian sports person so that they become more motivated and
better equipped to represent Christ and make Him known in the
world of sport. Young people are the greatest youth workers
around – this group is designed to give young people the right
tools to be able to live and speak of Jesus within their
sporting context. Let’s invest in the few to reach the many!
Where do the outreach events fit in?
The world of sport is a tough environment for young people to
communicate the good news of Jesus to their friends. The sports
outreach events are designed to encourage an evangelistic
outlook for the young people that attend on the regular Tuesday
group, while providing them with an opportunity to invite a non
Christian friend to a welcoming and enjoyable environment in
which the gospel will be clearly and relevantly presented.
