Intern Program Launched

ields of Faith (FOF) is an event organized by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes where students across the country gather at athletic fields or gyms to share their faith, hear testimonies, worship, and challenge peers to read the Bible and follow Jesus Christ. It is a student-to-student event designed to spark a spiritual movement and change the culture in communities. The Shasta County FCA Student-Leaders, Advisors, and local pastors organized this year's FOF event that was held last month at the UPrep HS stadium. Student speakers and guest speaker Coach Jerry Vallotton shared their testimonies and a call to action for attendees to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ.

Modoc Middle School (shown above) and Modoc High School both sponsored Food Drives to support food distribution to local families. FCA Advisors Cindy and Lynn Culp have been doing a fantastic job supporting these new huddles in the City of Alturas. The noticeable presence of FCA on campus has drawn attention and challenges.

Eighteen couples joined the Fellowship of Christian Athletes for its first "Coach & Spouse Date Night". This free dinner event featured guest speakers Jerry and Ann Vallotton, who shared insights on navigating the marital challenges often facing a coach's marriage. Risen King Church Pastors Cole and Caitlin Zick also shared biblically-based strategies for strong marriages. The event was held on the campus of Simpson University, and provided coaches and their spouses a great opportunity to fellowship together over a meal and return home with action items for enriching their marriages.

The CSU-Chico FCA recently started a Bible study with the men's golf team. The FCA Huddle has reached a number of the collegiate golfers this year. Several of them have regularly attended Huddle meetings. Two of the FCA student-athletes initiated the Bible study. Huddle Advisor Brendan Allen shared reports of good conversation and a genuine interest in spiritual things. The Gospel continues to be shared. Pray for a move of God on the CSU campus.

"And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony," Revelation 12:11 One of the most effective means of sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ is by sharing one's personal "testimony". FCA frequently invites coaches and athletes to share their personal testimony as a means of demonstrating the Father's nature and purpose for His children. Recently, Simpson University baseball player Bryce Young shared his personal testimony and lesson on the life of King David. He did a great job ministering to his peers at the huddle meeting (below).

See you on the field!
