ABOUT US
In 1999, while on a train trip from Geneva to Bern in Switzerland and looking at the beautiful scenery, Henry observed a large football field with young kids playing football and immediately his eyes lit up and with an unforgettable excitement in his heart, there and then he knew that’s what he wanted to do, be a football coach and not just to teach football but use it as a tool to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to the football world. That night after his trip back to Geneva from Bern, he spent hours in his room, praying and writing on a paper all the places that he and his team would go to make this a reality.
OUR HISTORY
It was not until the evening of the 18th of December 2021 in Asia after a group of several brothers had a friendly game against a local team that this football ministry was founded. All the glory belongs to God for allowing it to happen. We trust that God will lead and guide us in reaching out to the global football community with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Dear Lord Jesus, may your light shine through us to the football world with the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Amen!!

God
There is one God, who exists eternally in three distinct but equal persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God is unchanging in his holiness, justice, wisdom and love. He is the almighty Creator; Savior and Judge who sustains and governs all things according to his sovereign will for his own glory.
The Bible
God has revealed himself in the Bible, which consists of the Old and New Testaments alone. Every word was inspired by God through human authors, so that the Bible as originally given is in its entirety the Word of God, without error and fully reliable in fact and doctrine. The Bible alone speaks with final authority and is always sufficient for all matters of belief and practice.
The Human Race
All men and women, being created in the image of God, have inherent and equal dignity and worth. Their greatest purpose is to obey, worship and love God. As a result of the fall of our first parents, every aspect of human nature has been corrupted and all men and women are without spiritual life, guilty sinners and hostile to God. Every person is therefore under the just condemnation of God and needs to be born again, forgiven and reconciled to God in order to know and please him.
The Lord Jesus Christ
The Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, and lived a sinless life in obedience to the Father. He taught with authority and all his words are true. On the cross he died in the place of sinners, bearing God’s punishment for their sin, redeeming them by his blood. He rose from the dead and in his resurrection body ascended into heaven where he is exalted as Lord of all. He intercedes for his people in the presence of the Father.
Salvation
Salvation is entirely a work of God’s grace and cannot be earned or deserved. It has been accomplished by the Lord Jesus Christ and is offered to all in the gospel. God in his love forgives sinners whom he calls, granting them repentance and faith. All who believe in Christ are justified by faith alone, adopted into the family of God and receive eternal life.
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit has been sent from heaven to glorify Christ and to apply his work of salvation. He convicts sinners, imparts spiritual life and gives a true understanding of the Scriptures. He indwells all believers, brings assurance of salvation and produces increasing likeness to Christ (sanctification). He builds up the Church and empowers its members for worship, service and mission.
Final Things
There is a Heaven and a Hell. There is a second coming and a resurrection.
