  Christians in Sport
   Oxfordshire Pray Play Say Group
  
 
Information for Young People

 

If you love Jesus and are passionate about sport then this group is for you! Christians in sport exists for one reason – to make Jesus known in the world of sport. Imagine the impact – Christian young people all across this country passionate about playing their sport, and passionate about representing Jesus as they do!

  

What is the purpose of a PRAY PLAY SAY group?

The purpose is simple – to bring together sporty young Christians from all across Oxfordshire in order to equip and encourage them to stand tall for Jesus and represent him well as they play their sport. In short we want to help them PRAY for their non Christian friends, PLAY in a way that honours God, and finally be ready to SAY something of the good news of Jesus Christ.

 

What happens at a PRAY PLAY SAY group?

The 2 hour session will be split into two main sections. The first 45 minutes learning how we can represent Christ better as we let God challenge us through his word. The remainder of the time will be spent getting involved in some top sporting action!

 

What about the SPORTS OUTREACH events – where do they fit in?

The world of sport is a tough environment to communicate the good news of Jesus to your friends. The sports outreach events provide the young people of Oxfordshire with a great opportunity to invite a non Christian friend to an event in which the gospel will be clearly and relevantly presented – Pencil in the dates and start thinking who you could invite!
