Global School of Sports Ministry

Global School of Sports Ministry The fundamental purpose of GSSM is to identify and train committed Christian leadership in the effective use and understanding of sports ministry.

Sports ministry, simply defined, is any program or strategy that uses sports as a vehicle to fulfill Christ’s command to go into all the world and make disciples of all nations. It is using sports to evangelize and disciple with the emphasis on making disciples. GSSM is a training program that uses online instruction coupled with selected practicums to equip dedicated men and women to become sport

s ministry leaders. In order to successfully complete the course, each student must initiate and maintain a sports outreach program through their local church for a period of three or more years. All programs must be self-sustaining. GSSM will continue to monitor, encourage, consult and, when appropriate, send mission teams to assist and give credibility to the new programs initiated by the GSSM students.

🌍 This Giving Tuesday, we need your help — and your heart — more than ever.

Today is a beautiful reminder of what generosity can accomplish. But the truth is, the work doesn’t stop when Giving Tuesday ends. Nonprofits like Global School of Sports Ministry rely on ongoing support to train leaders, build communities, and bring hope through the power of sports all year long.

If you believe in equipping people to make a lasting impact, please consider giving today — and consider giving beyond today. We desperately need your help to continue this mission and reach even more lives around the world.

Every gift matters. Every dollar moves the mission forward.
Thank you for standing with us. 💙

💚A Personal Update from Alyssa Mahone 💚
Executive Director, Global School of Sports Ministry

Friends,

I’m writing today with a tender heart to share a personal update about my dad, Russ Carr, founder of Global School of Sports Ministry, beloved mentor, and faithful servant of the Lord.

After much prayer, conversation, and tears, my sister Jill and I have made the difficult but necessary decision to move Dad into a private care home. This was not an easy choice, but we are at peace knowing he is now in a Christ-centered, caring environment that honors his independence, his dignity, and most of all, his unwavering faith.

Russ built his life around investing in others through sports, ministry, and the love of Jesus. Now it’s our turn to surround him with that same love and care. We are committed to ensuring his days are filled with peace, joy, and the presence of God.

If you would like to send a message of encouragement, share a memory, or inquire about visiting him, I would love to hear from you. You can call or text me directly, or email us at [email protected].

Thank you for walking this journey with us. Your prayers, your kindness, and your love for our father mean more than words can say.

With gratitude and love,
Alyssa (and the entire family)

We witnessed lives changed, hope restored, children filled with joy, and the Gospel advancing in Kalooke. Not because of us, but because the tomb is still empty and Jesus is still saving.

121 people now walk in the light of salvation.

Thank you for sending us, praying with us, and believing for more. May God continue what He started.

From a 108-year-old woman who said, “Even at my age, God has not forgotten me,” to a single father with nothing but cassava to feed his children; God met real needs with love and provision.

Through your generosity, 15 families experienced both physical food and spiritual rebirth.

The team cleared roads, revived an old netball court, and burned trash, side by side with local leaders. But this was more than clean-up. It was a visual of what Jesus does in the soul.

3 people gave their lives to Christ while we swept. Because the Gospel doesn’t wait for a pulpit.

“Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.” Isaiah 1:18

We served over 600 people with a hot Easter meal, soda, and slices of cake. Many eating foods they rarely experience. But more than the meal, it was an invitation to the greatest celebration: the resurrection of Christ.

Three more lives were surrendered to Jesus that day. Full bellies. New beginnings.

God provided every plate and every soul.

“You prepare a table before me...my cup overflows.” Psalm 23:5
