Campus Ministry

The Campus Ministry is initiated and led by student-athletes and coaches on middle school, high school and college campuses. The programs of the Campus Ministry include Huddles, Team Bible Studies, Assembly Programs, Chapel Programs, TeamFCA Membership, and Special Events.

While all of these programs are carried out at different times, there is one program that remains constant…”Huddles.”  Huddles are student-led groups seeking to reach their campus for Christ by meeting together weekly to hang out and discuss issues of sports, life, and faith. You do not have to be an athlete to attend.

Who leads the campus ministry?

The campus ministry is led by a “huddle coach.”  A huddle coach is a coach, faculty member, or volunteer who assists the student leaders in organizing and carrying out the FCA programs and activities.  Huddle coaches have a variety of qualities needed, but the most important quality in a huddle coach is their committment to seeing the lives of young people changed through Jesus Christ and athletics.
Who can participate?

While athletes and coaches are the target, the FCA Campus Ministry does not place those requirements on the partcipants.  The framework and materials provided focus on the common ground of athletics, but as the athletes grow in their faith, those athletes may desire to reach out to the entire student body.
