Park High School FCA

Twice in the past ten years, there's been an effort to get an FCA huddle established at Park High School, but both times, it never quite came to fruition.

At our local FCA camps last summer, I met some students from Park and planted the idea of starting a huddle. I also received a note on Instagram from another Park student whose friend has been a part of getting FCA started at Woodbury High School. I connected with this student and visited him at his youth group. This allowed me to build meaningful relationships with this church's youth pastors, and I discovered that a dozen or so Park students were attending! They all felt the need for FCA on their campus, and it had been something they'd talked about amongst themselves.

We have had multiple meetings over the last month, discussing how to lead and praying together as they focus on how we might make FCA happen at their school. God has provided encouragement and resources through an engaged football coach and parents of a student wanting to see FCA happen at Park as well.

After one of our morning meetings, I challenged them to reach out to a few teachers to see if they would be willing to open their room for FCA to meet. These students took the challenge seriously and got back to me within the day! They received permission from three different teachers! Two of whom are coaches, which is super awesome! 

The first official FCA meeting at Park was this February! The vision for starting a huddle is to provide a space for Christian community on campus and for students to grow together in their faith while bringing in others who are newer to the faith. Would you pray with me for these students, these coaches and teachers, this huddle, and those who will come to meet Jesus because of this opportunity? It has been an incredible ride so far.
