Fellowship Of Christian Athletes

Dena and I were invited to a banquet sponsored by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

Local adult leaders hold morning "huddle groups" with students at most every high school, university, and junior high.

The banquet featured students making videotaped statements about their enjoyment of the experience.

J Leman, a former University of Illinois football player, told his life story. It included some tales of mysterious healing, and overcoming obstacles. Very moving.

Besides campus, FCA also reaches out through camps, coaches and community.

No matter your religion, it's heartening to see adults in action spending time mentoring youth in positive values.
