Who is the Fellowship of Christian Athletes?

Since 1954, FCA has been challenging athletes and coaches at every level to use the powerful medium of athletics to impact the world for Jesus Christ.

FCA is the largest interdenominational, school-based, Christian sports ministry in America reaching over 1.5 million people annually. It provides a positive peer group as an alternative to the negative pressures so prevalent in schools today. FCA is also a vehicle for teammates to influence others with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to offer a different lifestyle to the worldly ways often found on our campuses and in sports today.

THE NEHEMIAH PROJECT

A national pilot project serving students
and their families in our community

Our Vision: Provide hope and enrich communities

Our Mission: To meet physical, social, emotional, academic, character and career needs
of students and their families in our community.

Presently 2,500 cases of free pasta and new Aéropostale coats distributed in our community. 800 students participate in weekly Nehemiah sponsored activities and/or events. 40 students and their families participate in daily after-school program, targeting those with the greatest needs. Mentors and regular home visits emphasized.
300 individuals, businesses, churches, and civic organizations partner with us.

In spite of considerable challenges facing many families, God is moving in our midst. Last school year, our Christ-centered, volunteer-driven, invitation-based project was launched at Airport High School. Next year, we will multiply to Brookland-Cayce High School. Our efforts represent a partnership with Christ Central Ministries, Inc. and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

Empirical data and anecdotal information clearly indicates … lives ARE being impacted!
