We are all
about Jesus
At Avalon, we do Upward Sports because we believe every child and every family matters to Jesus. Volleyball gives us a place to teach skills, encourage teamwork, and build confidence, but the heart of this ministry is much bigger than the game. Through devotions, prayer, encouragement, and relationships with coaches and volunteers, we want kids to experience the love of Christ in a real and tangible way. Our hope is that families do not just walk away saying, “That was a great season,” but that they feel seen, supported, welcomed, and reminded that Jesus loves them and has a purpose for their lives.
