COVID-19 STATEMENT

Official FCA Statement here.  NE Florida Statement below.
Dear Family & Friends,

Over the past few months, COVID-19 has rocked our world and has affected our individual communities where we live.  It has caused global anxiety, significant changes in routines and daily life, while also causing some to scour supermarket aisles for hand sanitizer, bottled water, and toilet paper. Some people have even been given shelter in place orders for the foreseeable future.  No one knows what to expect, and for many, their innermost fears are rising to the surface and rearing their ugliness.

The question that arises in circumstances like we presently face is both simple and complex: What does it look like to trust the Lord with our lives and our world, while also practicing wisdom and discernment?  As a ministry, we are with you in this battle.  We are praying for you, our communities, coaches, athletes, teams and campuses daily.

Let us pray for you. Simply drop us a prayer request at the bottom of this page and let us know how we can be in prayer for you or your family. No prayer is too big or too small. It is our honor to pray for you.

Because we are in this together, NE Florida FCA would love to hear how God is using your days of quarantine in your own life.  We certainly look forward to sharing how He uses it in ours.  For those of you on social media, be encouraged by the ways FCA continues to move forward in this season by searching all social media posts with the hashtag #FCAvirtual.  Follow us on our @NEFlorida accounts for encouragement as well (Facebook, Instagram & Twitter).

For those of you interested in further details regarding our current situation, please see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's) compiled and answered below.  We also encourage you to visit our webpage dedicated to all things #FCAvirtual here in NE Florida.

We are thankful for your partnership in taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth. Today, may you take great comfort in God's promise to be your refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble (Ps. 46:1).

You are loved,
Matthew Roop, PGA
Director, NE Florida FCA
Frequently Asked Questions
  • Why Virtual? Why Technology?

    FCA ministry has largely occurred throughout history in the locker room, in a classroom, on the practice field, on the course, or on the court.  Because doors are closed (for now) to these places, naturally the question becomes, how do we minister in spite of closed campuses, no sports, and social distancing?  


    Rather than "pushing pause" on FCA ministry, we believe for this season, the use of technology driven virtual spaces will enable to us to continuing moving forward in our mission to lead every coach and athlete into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His church.


    See this first-hand at NEFloridaFCA.org/FCAvirtual.

  • What is FCA Virtual Ministry?

    FCA did tremendous job quickly building and defining for our staff, volunteers, coaches and athletes how we will navigate this virtual space for the foreseeable future.  


    Specific to NE Florida, we encourage you to check it out for yourself at NEFloridaFCA.org/FCAvirtual.  


    This page is filled with resources to engage, equip, and empower coaches and athletes as they are lead into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church.

  • How can I help?

    Join us in praying that our current circumstances will cause coaches and athletes across the globe to lift their eyes to Jesus, to contemplate eternity, and to ask God to calm their fears.  COVID-19 was not in our plans.  However, we trust in God's plan, and as always, we are asking Him to move!


    Tuesday, March 24th, FCA set the day aside for prayer and fasting.  Our nearly 2,000 staff worldwide spent the day praying over our coaches, athletes, boards, volunteers, investors, schools, communities, country, and world with the simple goal of growing closer to the Lord in holiness and praying over the COVID-19 crisis.

#FCAvirtual: 
As we look at the present reality of off-site ministry, we want to seize the opportunity and build momentum in a new, digital era.  Bottom line: we want to lead every coach and athlete into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His church.
