Now is the time for us to come together... by staying apart.
Now is the time for us to help local non-profits which have seen their donations decrease when the needs in our community are greater than ever.
Now is the time for us to Stay Strong!

During this time of isolation, join together with runners and walkers all over the country in supporting their local charities and organizations.

THIS EVENT BENEFITS:

Purpose
The purpose of the July 2020 FCA Walk/Run Challenge is to raise financial support for our new Field Staff, Jeff Sanders, who will be serving 12-14 school districts in the NW Panhandle of Texas and parts of the Oklahoma Panhandle.

The Fellowship of Christian Athletes is touching millions of lives…one heart at a time. Since 1954, FCA has been challenging coaches and athletes on the professional, college, high school, junior high and youth levels to use the powerful platform of sport to reach every coach and every athlete with the transforming power of Jesus Christ. FCA focuses on serving local communities around the globe by engaging, equipping and empowering coaches and athletes to unite, inspire and change the world through the gospel.

VISION
To see the world transformed by Jesus Christ through the influence of coaches and athletes.

MISSION
To lead every coach and athlete into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His church.

VALUES
Our relationships will demonstrate steadfast commitment to Jesus Christ and His Word through Integrity, Serving, Teamwork and Excellence.

Integrity
We will demonstrate Christ-like wholeness, privately and publicly. (Proverbs 11:3)

Serving
We will model Jesus’ example of serving. (John 13:1-17)

Teamwork
We will express our unity in Christ in all our relationships. (Philippians 2:1-4)

Excellence
We will honor and glorify God in all we do. (Colossians 3:23-24)

STRATEGY
To and Through the Coach
We pursue our vision and mission through the strategy of to and through the coach. We seek ministry first to coaches hearts, marriages and families. Then, when ready, we minister through coaches to their fellow coaches, teams and athlete leaders.
Billy Graham said, “A coach will impact more people in one year than the average person will in an entire lifetime.” With the influence of a coach, FCA recognizes the most strategic way to reach more athletes is to first reach the coach.

METHODS
As FCA matures, we seek to make disciples through our methods of engaging, equipping and empowering coaches and athletes to know and grow in Christ and lead others to do the same.

Engage
(1 Thessalonians 2:8)
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
(Ephesians 4:12)
After cultivating relationships and once coaches and athletes come to faith in Christ, we want to equip them with Christ-centered training, events, resources and on-going support in what it means to be a follower of Christ, growing in God’s Word and applying it to life.
Empower

(2 Timothy 2:2)
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 Him with others. We desire to develop disciples who make disciples, assisting them so that they can in turn engage, equip and empower others to know and grow in Christ and lead others to do the same.

The purpose of the July 2020 FCA Walk/Run Challenge is to raise financial support for our new Field Staff, Jeff Sanders, who will be serving 12-14 school districts in the NW Panhandle of Texas and parts of the Oklahoma Panhandle.
