ABOUT
Friendship Sports International exists to fulfill the Great Commission by raising up disciples, developing young leaders, and sharing the gospel through sports and experiential learning. Through international trips, leadership retreats, and service initiatives, we equip young Christians to build relationships, serve communities, and grow in faith.
“We exist to inspire and equip Christian leaders to share the hope of the gospel, embody the heart of discipleship, and serve with the hands of Jesus—transforming lives through sports, service, and faith.”
PROJECTS
Every year, Friendship Sports continues to spread the love of Jesus Christ to the nation of Honduras, Central America. With several projects underway, it seems like there's always something happening, even though our main focus has been a small town of less than 1,000 people. Jesus teaches to nurture relationships and disciple others to do so as well. This philosophy has led to the creation of churches, schools, and Camp Monte de Santidad in Honduras. Some current FSI projects include…

HISTORY
Founded in 1986 by Jack King, Friendship Sports International began by leading sports teams abroad to share the gospel through the universal language of athletics. In addition to sports teams, construction projects have also been a big focus. Over the years, FSI has expanded to lead church and other ministry groups beyond athletics.
THE TEAM
Over the years, FSI has been led and directed by many individuals with a passion for missions work. Their love and devotion to God's purpose in Honduras has shaped the organization into what it is today. With the Lord's provision and direction, the board will continue to make intentional decisions that will bless God's children throughout Honduras, the United States, and the World.
PARTNERS
God uses strong partnerships to bless His children. Friendship Sports has chosen to work alongside several churches, universities, individuals, and organizations.
“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, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
