In South Africa, AIA is using the one language of sport to offer hope and life to hurting and broken people.
There are over 6,000 spoken languages around the world today. But there is one language that rises above all spoken languages—the language of sport. In most cultures the value system highly esteems the performance of the athlete and gives him or her a national platform of influence. The nations that look up to athletes as heroes must find those heroes looking up to God. AIA wants to help build an army of sport heroes around that have a character worth modeling. AIA staff members and trained associated currently serve the needs of athletes in 75 countries around the world.

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” Matthew 28:19

Struggle and Triumph
 |
Every four years, athletes from 200 countries gather to compete in the world's greatest sporting event. While some achieve the sports ultimate prize the Olympic gold medal, other have to be satisfied with the experience of taking part. They recall the world of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the father of the modern Olympic movement, "The important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have won, but to have fought well."
