MISSIONS:
Fellowship of Christian Athletes
January 2008
Dear Family
and Friends,
It is
evident that God has been with us in South
Jersey this past year.
Through persistent prayers and generous
support, doors were opened for
Christ to impact the hearts and lives of
coaches and athletes. In our 4 C�s
of Ministry, God�s blessings overflowed in
these ways:
Coaches
We believe
that coaches are often the most important
adult role model
in young people�s lives. FCA strives to
equip coaches with a relationship
with Jesus Christ and a heart to serve Him.
Campus
Campus
Ministry is initiated and led by student
athletes on school campuses.
These student leaders are supported by
coaches and adult volunteers as they
lead through Bible study, prayer, worship
and excellent fellowship.
Camps
Since 1956,
coaches and athletes have come to FCA Camps
for �a week of
perspiration and inspiration� through
sports, leadership and spiritual training.
This past year, FCA set record attendance
with 42,000 participants nationwide.
Our Power Camps and surf camps are the most
effective ministry in the
summer reaching over 300 kids and adults.
Community
FCA
continues to expand its influence through
countless volunteers, parents,
businesses and churches. Providing
ministries that expand beyond the campus
allows FCA to influence coaches and athletes
within the community.
Praise God
for His activity in FCA! God was with us
this past year, and we
are already praying for His continued
presence and power in the Southern
New Jersey area.
Reggie
Dabbs spoke in South Jersey schools from
Dec. 3-14. He is regarded
as the #1 High school motivational speaker
in the country, speaking to over
1.5 million students a year across the
world. Reggie spoke to almost 24,000
students and teachings about choices during
the day. In the evenings, FCA
hosted 8 night rallies where over 400
students, teachers, and parents made
decisions to follow Christ. Praise God!
We are
eternally thankful for your partnership with
FCA. May God be with
you and bless you this Christmas and New
Year. We look forward to what
God has in store for 2008!
In Christ,
Kevin Harvey
Fritz
and I went to the evening program in Buena
to hear Reggie Dabbs at
the invitation. The altar was full of kids
and adults committing to Christ
