Fellowship of Christian Athletes HQ

For more than 68 years, FCA has been empowering coaches and athletes to make a difference for Christ, reaching millions of lives with its positive message of the Gospel. As FCA impacts millions of people across the globe each year, it strives to develop its values of integrity, serving, teamwork and excellence in all its coaches and athletes. We've made it a priority to pour into coaches and see them transformed and passionate about the sphere of influence where God has placed them. We desire to see every coach and athlete come to faith in Jesus Christ and grow deeply in their relationship with Him. We want to see them exhibit strong character on and off the playing field.

FCA seeks to make disciples through our strategy of engaging, equipping and empowering coaches and athletes to know and grow in Christ, and lead others to do the same. We call this E3 Discipleship.

Engage: We engage relationally by connecting with individuals and through events in many different environments by building genuine trust, sharing our lives and sharing the Gospel. We strive to connect with coaches and athletes where they are on their spiritual journey.

Equip: After cultivating relationships and once coaches and athletes come to faith in Christ, we want to equip them with God's Word, biblical training, resources and ongoing support in what it means to be a follower of Christ, growing in God's Word and applying it to life.

Empower: Once equipped, we empower faithful leaders who desire to use their time, talents and treasures to help other coaches and athletes experience the Gospel, grow in their faith and share Christ with others. We desire to develop disciples who make disciples, assisting them so they can in turn engage, equip and empower others to know and grow in Christ, and lead others to do the same.

FCA uses our long history of coaching both coaches and athletes to excel on and off the playing field through experiences that leave a lasting imprint. FCA has over 2,500 staff members in field offices around the world. These individuals are trained and equipped for sports ministry and are passionate about seeing their communities and countries come to Christ.

FCA currently has over 19,000 certified Huddle groups meeting on campuses and in the community. This past summer, FCA conducted 839 camps reaching 83,421 coaches and athletes worldwide. We have distributed over 196,000 Bibles this past year. We continue to marvel at how God uses FCA and has stretched, grown and graced this ministry to better equip our staff and volunteers to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus.

The future for FCA involves ministering to coaches and athletes and continuing to grow our FCA staff locally and globally to reach more coaches and athletes with the life changing message of the Gospel.
