THE ORGANIZATION

Founded by Sam and Sharon Mings in the USA, Lay Witnesses for Christ International is known as ‘Chaplains to World Champions.’ Over the past 39 years, they have had the opportunity to minister to world-class athletes including Olympic champions, dynamic pastors, ministry leaders, renowned coaches and so many more people who use their talents to see God glorified. They reach out globally using the world of sport to positively impact others, especially youth, with the life-saving message of Christ. Their focus has always remained the same: to impact our world for Jesus Christ. God has brought many willing, serving hearts to Sam and Sharon that have been used to grow Lay Witnesses to Christ Internationally.

Dr Mings has had the blessing to be there when Olympians have recognised their need to be saved by Christ and then watched them grow to be great witnesses themselves. From Los Angeles -California in 1984, Seoul-South Korea in 1988, Barcelona- Spain in 1992, Atlanta-Georgia- USA in 1996, Sydney-Australia in 2000, Athens- Greece in 2004, Beijing- China in 2008 and London-England in 2012 LWFCI ministered alongside the world’s greatest athletes.
