This October more than 250,000 students across the nation are joining together on football fields as part of a faith-filled initiative by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA, www.fca.org) encouraging their classmates to pray, read their Bibles, and “open up their life to Christ.”
Fox and Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt shared how FCA impacted her faith during her college years.
“I love this organization,” Earhardt said. “God used it to change my life when I was in college at the University of South Carolina.”
The Fields of Faith events will offer hope in a world where students are faced with many challenges, such as hopelessness, loneliness, depression, suicide, drugs, alcohol and more.
“In a world where bad news seems to be the norm, we’re happy to share the great news that lives are being changed through Fellowship of Christian Athletes’ Fields of Faith,” said FCA Executive Director of Ministry Advancement Jeff Martin. “From the student leaders who take on the responsibility to bring Fields of Faith to their communities to the skeptical or hurting teen who might be attending for the first time, we see time and again that Fields of Faith motivates, energizes, rejuvenates and unites. Jesus takes hold of lives right there on the athletic fields, and we are continually amazed at what He does each year in young peoples’ lives.”
