Spreading the Good News both Near and Far

Missionaries We Support

A portion of the Great Commission laid out by the Lord Jesus involved reaching out with the Good News of the Gospel to the edges of the world. To that end, we come alongside the various people and ministries listed below through prayer, encouragement and regular financial giving.

Athletes in Action

Shawn & Elizabeth Keith

Shawn and Liz serve with Athletes in Action, the sports ministry of Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ) and have been on staff since 2001.  More specifically, they work with AIA Global Media creating evangelistic sports films which are used by the body of Christ worldwide.  These key tools are used by church and Para-church partners around the world to help to introduce people and cultures enamored with sport to Jesus Christ.

Shawn was the Executive Producer of the Reversing the Curse: Stories of Faith from the 2004 Season DVD featuring the Boston Red Sox after winning their first World Series title in 86 years. More than 270,000 copies have now been distributed. Since then, 13 more films have been created for outreach highlighting world class athletes and sporting events such as the Soccer World Cup, the Super Bowl, and the Olympics. Most recently, Shawn produced The Prize: Under Pressure for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.   This film has been distributed in over 170 countries and has been translated into 49 languages, all streaming online for free at www.theprize.com .  They will next be working on another Summer Olympic film for Rio 2016.  Over 200 countries participate in these games, and through their continued partnership with the Jesus Film and their mobile App, the opportunity for Gospel proclamation around the globe is tremendous.

Shawn and Liz currently live in Indiana with their three children Matthew, Ryan, and Sarah.
