The game and the mission
See the Hope rise over Africa as the continent is impacted by the body of Christ.
The Ultimate Goal is the theme that SASCOL has adopted as its outreach initiative during the soccer event to be hosted in South Africa. It is a collaborative partnership of various Church Denominations, Para church organisations and agencies.
The Ultimate Goal is to share the Love of Christ as well as the Gospel in many different ways to players, their families, coaches, spectators, tourists and local residents.
We want to see the Hope rise over Africa as the continent is impacted by the body of Christ, moving with influence into society to eradicate Afro-pessimism, bring reconciliation, alleviate poverty, and establish sound family units etc. by the development of leadership.Our aim is to, by the Spirit of God and the collective effort of the church, develop transformational disciples through Sport.
The whole Body of Christ needs to rally together to capitalize on the opportunity that the 2010 soccer event presents. This is the golden hour of Africa to create new hope for the future generations of the continent. Since this opportunity is once in a life-time, we want to make sure that we capture the moment and empower our people!!
What is South African Sports Coalition or (SASCOL)?
SASCOL is an initiative by predominant church leaders representing the majority of church denominations in South Africa. The 2010 soccer event offers Africa the best opportunity to combat the destructive giants of HIV and AIDS, breaking up of the family unit, poverty, corruption, violence and ethnic strife.
These giants need to be overcome by lasting moral values that direct the behaviour of our people. Through The Ultimate Goal and partnership with the International Sports Coalition (ISC), the church is capturing the golden opportunity to transform the future generations of Africa.
SASCOL operates under the mandate of the International Sports Coalition (ISC), which serves all major sports events, e.g. The Olympic Games, World Cups, etc.
