Can you imagine playing soccer with a ball made from old socks, rags, and plastic, all tied together with string?
For many children living in remote villages around the world, this is their reality. Something as simple as a brand-new soccer ball or volleyball is a luxury they can only dream of having.
YOU can help change that!
Vessels of Mercy International wants to bring the gift of play to children attending remote schools in some of the world's most underserved communities.
Imagine the excitement, laughter, and smiles when these children receive a REAL soccer ball or volleyball!
It's more than just a ball. It's a gift of joy, friendship, teamwork, and hope!
❤️ Something so small to us can mean the WORLD to a child!
Will you help us put a ball in their hands and a smile on their faces?

On our mission trip to Kenya, we were committed to bringing practical hope and sharing the good news of Jesus. One strategic tool we use is the JESUS film, which helps introduce people to Jesus—and on this trip, we were able to share it in extremely remote areas.

In one area, we partnered with a pastor we’ve worked with since 2007. At his request, we traveled to an unreached people group, bringing the story of Jesus to a place where it had not yet been shared.

We’re grateful to be at the tip of the plow in these areas, and excited to see what God will continue to do. Thank you to everyone who partners with us to share the gospel!
