​Quest – Briarwood Soccer Club International Missions
 BSC and the entire Quest ministry have taken the ambassador theme to other parts of the world. We partnered with Campus Outreach Brazil to put on our Ambassador Soccer Camp in Belo Horizonte, Brazil in July 2004. We use the game of soccer to share the Good News of the Gospel and bring much needed soccer shoes, equipment, soccer balls, and love to less fortunate kids in this soccer-crazy nation. Coach Ryan Leib and a team of 4 coaches and 4 players went on this ground-breaking trip to work with the soccer school of JK Villa. We are continuing to strengthen our relationship with the missionaries in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. We brought 2 coaches and soccer ministers from Brazil to help with our Ambassador Soccer Camp in the summer of 2005 and went back to Belo in summer 2006 with another team of coaches. In July 2007 our 91 Ambassadors Gold team went to Belo, we took another team of 91 age players in 2008, the 93 Lady Ambassadors Blue team went summer 2010, our 95 Ambassadors Gold went in July 2011, the 96 Ambassadors Gold went in July 2012, and the 97 Ambassadors Gold went in July 2013. 2014 we had a special treat as the FIFA World Cup was in Brazil while our trip was taking place. 12 members of an All-Star squad went, 9 of the team had been to Brazil before. In 2015, we had the 98 Ambassadors Boys team go and had a great trip ministering there. In 2016, the Briarwood Christian School Girls Soccer team went to Belo Horizonte to share the love of Christ. In 2017, the 00 Boys went and in 2018 the 01 Boys went to Brazil. The 01-03 Lady Ambassadors ministered in Brazil in 2019, but unfortunately, we were not able to go in 2020 due to COVID 19.  We continue our partnership with Communidade Horizonte Church and the Luzeiro ministry in the Nova Sao Lucas community and we hope to return next year.  We are thankful for God bringing us together. Thank you to all who have prayed for and supported this work, and those who have made the trip.

Brazil Mission Trip 2016 
We had a great trip to Belo Horizonte, Brazil during July 2016 with the Briarwood Christian School Lady Lions Soccer team.  We partnered with Communidade Horizonte Church and Casa Luzeiro youth ministry during our time there.  This is our eleventh trip to this city!  Casa Luzeiro works with children in the Nova Sao Lucas community to improve their lives, help with community revitalization, and provide programs to help the kids of this community. Casa Luzeiro seeks to point the children to God’s Word and a relationship with Christ.  In Brazil, soccer is king, and it is a great tool to reach people.  We help the Luzeiro staff reach more kids by doing a VBS-type program for kids ages 6-12 and a soccer tournament for teams  7-18 years old.  We also put on a soccer coaching education course to train young adults within the community to help develop the soccer ministry at Luzeiro.  It is an amazing place with amazing people who love the Lord and do some very hard work to reach families with the Gospel of Christ.  We partner with the people of CH church as they seek to impact the people of Belo Horizonte.  It is a humbling experience for our players and coaches from Briarwood Soccer Club and Briarwood Christian School, and the friendships we develop in a short time are long-lasting and impactful.  We hope to keep sending teams there and appreciate your prayers to lift up the people of Belo Horizonte, Brazil and the staff there as they seek to see God lifted up in that area of the city.  Thanks for your support, Obrigado!!​
