          The international language of soccer conquers the hearts of many people worldwide. Men are ready to give everything to their passion of soccer. They worship this game, play it in any weather and exert their physical strength with training. It is common for them to spend time viewing soccer game and they are faithful supporters of their favorite teams. All this is for the sake of a game.

 

Life has a much more important language, the language of love; millions of hearts worldwide have been touched by it, learning kindness and compassion through God's Love. This language, tough in the Bible, has the message of Salvation and gives purpose to our lives. 

 

 

This year the international Soccer Project has used both of these languages to reach out to the Russian Army. Military men of different arms of the service communicated with veterans of British soccer clubs and heard the message of Jesus Christ's Saving Love.

 

This is more than a game, it is real life.
