Latest News from BMS World Mission 04/03/10

There are now less than 100 days until we get to see the flair of the Brazilians, the quality of the Italians - and, of course, the misguided optimism of England fans!

This summer's FIFA World Cup finals are the first on the African continent. BMS will be producing a video resource for churches to coincide with the tournament and there's exciting news about 'Onside 2010' on the website this week as we announce its presenter: the 'voice of football', John Motson.

As well as Motty, 'Onside' will also include features from the Street Child World Cup, which happens in two weeks' time, also in South Africa. It's not too late to pledge your or your church's support for the Nicaragua team via the link below.

There's also an article on legal work in Uganda, prayer for Chile and a look back at the recent BMS Day of Prayer.
