Miicah Coleman
Former Camper Eastmoor Academy HS
I really appreciated the Huddle Leaders there and the other kids (at camp). FCA gave me the opportunity to be the man that I am right now and the man I know I will become in the future as far as my relationship with Christ and as a leader in the community. The perspectives there really helped me.
Michayla Brenning
Former Student LeaderWesterville Central HS
Being a Student Leader in FCA was impactful because it gave me an avenue to share my faith with others. FCA opened up opportunities for conversations about faith and its importance in our every day lives. It's important to share God's love and grace, I am glad I was able to do that through to planning devotionals and making the time with my classmates valuable.
Ellyn Crawford
Cross Country and Track Athlete Team FCA
I have enjoyed the opportunity to run for Team FCA for 8 years. This group is more than just a team. It is a close knit group of people with a common cause; to uplift the name of Jesus Christ. And that makes us family in a spiritual sense. I deeply cherish the relationships that have been crafted through FCA. I wish I could go back and do it all over again.
Gavin Gump
Former Student LeaderWatkins Memorial HS
FCA allowed me to develop into the person I am today and showed me what it meant to be a Christian. I learned so much through preparing lessons and helping people learn more about Christ. FCA drew me closer to God and made me realize that no matter how much you know about God, you can always learn more if you're open to it.
To see the world transformed by Jesus Christ through the influence of coaches and athletes.

Ethan Robinson
College Volunteer Walnut Ridge
“It’s been a blast, a true blessing to be able to be used by God in the lives of these students. I feel like I’ve benefited the most from just seeing how much God can do in so little time, and it makes me excited to see what he continues to do moving forward. I’m truly grateful to have the opportunity to mentor students, playing a simple but important part in God’s plan for their life is exciting and a great experience.”
Jeff Brenning
Former Coach and Current FCA Staff
FCA has really helped my development and growth in my Christian walk. For the last 5 years of my 34 year tenure as a coach, I was able to be a part of the FCA Coaches Ministry. As a coach, I helped lead the Westerville South Coaches Huddle while being discipled by Daryl Bell, the FCA staff. Daryl was instrumental in my transformation after giving my full life to follow Christ. I felt God's calling to ministry after retiring and I am blessed to be on FCA's staff that has such a unity and mission of the gospel of Christ.
Pastor David Milroy
New Albany Presbyterian Church Church Partner at Linden McKinley High School
"FCA empowers churches to build life-long relationship with not only the student athlete, but also with the whole family. This has helped us get to know the people of Linden, to serve them (through serving team meals and leading a Team Huddle) and build relationships in order to show the love of Christ and share the gospel… I highly recommend it."
Josh Manner
Teacher Volunteer at Dublin Jerome
"FCA has provided a unique experience where we can fellowship with and encourage students in their walk with the Lord. Sharing stories about life, overcoming adversity in sports and injuries, and connecting with professional athletes has had a tremendous impact on our students faith and naturally lends itself to deeper discipleship."
