What is FCA and what is its ministry?
|
CAMPS |
|
A week of challenging "inspiration and perspiration" for athletes and coaches with their families through Sports, Coaches, Leadership and Athletic Camps. Camp speakers challenge campers to a deeper relationship with Christ so they may return home and become influences for Christ in their schools and communities. |

CAMPUS |
|
The backbone of FCA's school-year program giving athletes a positive peer group to nurture Christian growth, and service. With Christ as the center of the meeting, and using the Bible as the authority, Teammates are inspired to improve their spiritual lives and use their influence to challenge others to receive Christ. |

|
COMMUNITY |
|
The task of staff and volunteers to supply the administrative, programmatic and financial foundations for the ministry. FCA strives to develop long-standing relationships with its Teammates and donors, and like the best of friends, wants to stay in touch with FCA alumni.
Providing adult fellowship while giving FCA's Huddles and staff stability through personal and financial resources. Adult volunteers help out at local events, raise funds for Huddle resources and Camp scholarships, or may provide refreshments for a weekly Huddle meeting. |

COACHES |
|
The "coach" is the central figure in the sports culture. FCA recognizes the coach as the most influential person in American culture today. FCA desires to minister to all coaches of all sports of all levels. We recognize that all coaches are at a different place in their spiritual journey, so we desire to serve them however they will allow. |
