Why FCAW…
“My first connection with FCA began about 15 years ago. I was invited to an FCA sports camp by a wrestling coach (who has become my best friend and partner in this FCA Wrestling journey). I was so transformed by the combination of sport and faith. It was a new and excellent way to think about faith in God. I began to volunteer with FCA at our school, with camps and clinics, etc. I figured that I would get more involved after I retired (at 62) from teaching and coaching. But, this past summer God really put in on my heart to go ALL IN with FCA Wrestling after this year of teaching. And that’s where we are today!”

““One of the most powerful experiences I’ve witnessed was when one of our wrestlers spoke before her baptism. She talked about the life changing experience she encountered at an FCA Wrestling Camp while she was in high school. She’s now a college athlete at Menlo College where she’s a spiritual leader for her teammates - moving hearts towards Christ! Will you consider investing in this ministry today so more lives can be impacted for Christ?””
