WorldCupWeb.jpgWhile in South Africa, I’m launching new blog series called “Beyond the Game.” I’ll report from South Africa at the 2010 FIFA World Cup on social justice issues impacting orphans and vulnerable children.

Very soon, we’re launching a “Beyond the Game” section of the Children’s HopeChest Web site and publishing a new “Beyond the Game” devotional.

I’ll be reporting on five key topics:

  • Extreme Poverty
  • Sex Trafficking
  • Orphans
  • Globalization
  • Rich vs. Poor

Following my trip to South Africa, we’ll be returning on a Vision Trip with HopeChest in  October 2010 to connect churches, businesses and communities to orphan CarePoints. Interested? Leave a comment and we’ll get in touch.

Earlier this year, I visited South Africa and had the opportunity to interview the President of Focus on the Family Africa about our partnership to reach orphans throughout South Africa through the CarePoints where they are already working. The video below was shot earlier this year (I’m not yet in Africa).

 

Leave a comment if you are ready to help orphans or have an interest in the 2010 October Vision Trip to South Africa (for pastors and other leaders of potential sponsoring communities).
