Briarwood SC partners with Coach Bernard in Belo Horizonte Brazil to reach out to kids with the Gospel using the game of soccer.
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.
