On the 19th April 2009, Sports Partnership Malaysia in partnership with Indonesia Sports Partnership was in East & West Timor for a sports mission. Throughout this trip, we were able to cast and share the vision about Sports Ministry and Partnership to the church leaders.

During our stint in Timor Leste, we did conduct 3 Kids Games and soccer training. Our first Kids Games was in Kupang where we had about 600 children. The following day, we divided into 2 groups. The first group was sent to Soeh and the other group was sent to Dilli.

Back in Dilli, we were there for 5 day. During our stay in Dilli we had the opportunity to share in the children church and to the young adults. We did share to two leaders from Atauro regarding Sports Ministry and how can we be a blessing to them.

As an individual, God did spoke to me in many ways. As a team, he did challenge us in many different areas. As a team we stood together to achieve what was supposed to be done.

Timor Leste is entering ‘Into a New Era of Fruitfulness’. There is much work that needs to be done in Timor Leste. I urge those who are under the ISC (International Sports Coalition) umbrella, to look forward in going into Timor Leste and to help and encourage our brother Jerry who is part of the ISC and the Squash Mini Region.
