We are a national organization that focuses on reaching athletes and coaches for Christ. To learn more about FCA as a national organization, please click on the “About FCA” page.
On the local level, FCA is an organization at Mississippi College that focuses on influencing athletes and coaches to use their influence for Christ. At MC, our mission is to form an army of believers to disciple and serve every athlete and coach on campus, displaying the love of Christ through our personal faith; being unashamed and transparent with a presence of overflowing joy that sets this campus on fire. We are seeing this mission accomplished by teams being affected by Christ in a visible way, community being developed and encouraged, raising up disciples who are constantly growing and multiplying other disciples and seeing coaches coach biblically.
We have several levels of growth where athletes, coaches and students can get plugged in and grow in their faith. We have weekly huddle meetings for any student which take place in the Rebounder’s Room in the Coliseum Monday nights at 8:30pm. We also have lifegroups for each team where athletes can plug in and live life together learning about God with their teammates. We also have opportunities for one-on-one discipleship for further growth. We have a leadership team which is split up into 5 different teams that lead all of these areas of ministry.
There is no fee to join. You can find our office in the weight room located in the field house by the football field. You can also connect with us through Facebook and Twitter.
