Upward Ministry

Upward desires to change generations globally and recognize that Every Child Is A Winner.

The purpose of the Upward Sports Ministry is to fulfill God’s vision that He planned long ago by promoting:
Salvation - To share the love of Jesus Christ with everyone involved in an Upward ministry.
Character - To help every child grow as Jesus did – spiritually, physically, mentally, and socially.
Self-Esteem - To help every child grow in their understanding and enjoyment of sports.
 
The Upward Sports Ministry Program is conveniently located at the New River Baptist Association.  For more information, you can call 347-3146 or send an email to nrbaptist@yahoo.com.
