NE FLORIDA FCA STUDENTS ATHLETES HEAD TO ISRAEL

Milena Ruiz • March 1, 2023

In late December, Northeast Florida FCA student athletes Hayley Friedl and Olivia O’Leary, from Jacksonville University, joined 20 other athletes from around the country on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Israel. During their trip, Hayley and Olivia had the opportunity to tour the city of Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, and the Jordan River, as well as many other parts of Israel. Bible stories came to life as the two walked the streets of Jerusalem and stood in some of the same places where Jesus performed miracles.


Both Hayley and Olivia returned refreshed and strengthened in their faith! As the two continue to lead the JU campus huddle, this trip will forever be imprinted in their hearts and will bring others closer to Jesus Christ through their testimonies.


JAX Collegiate FCA is excited to send student athletes to Israel each year in hopes that more students will continue to develop their love for the nations and gain insight on the importance of missions.
