Servants Sports Ministry
Serving At-Risk Families through Sport and Play
Servants, Inc. partners with Henry Odong of Baseball Without Borders to host a Sports Ministry mission outreach program in Lugazi, Uganda. Henry Odong was introduced to baseball by American missionaries in Uganda. He became the first pitcher in history of the Ugandan National Baseball Team. When Uganda made their debut in the 1999 All Africa Games, Odong was on the mound. After retiring, Odong began coaching and creating baseball development programs in Lugazi, Uganda. Under Odong's coaching, Uganda sent the first African team to ever gain entry into the Little League World Series in 2012. Odong continues to champion baseball and share his love of Jesus Christ throughout Uganda.
Servants' team leader, Lisa Sica took her first mission trip to Guatemala in July of 2016. Since then, she has led several international trips, and also organizes trips domestically in response to national disasters. Lisa has a PhD in Business Administration and is a certified ICISM Trainer and Trauma Healing Facilitator. She has recently completed Level 2 certification of ReadySetGo sports ministry and is very excited to continue leading teams of people ready to minister to the world through sport and play.
