Dear FCA Teammates, Thank you for being a part of our Home Team! We’re so grateful for your partnership that enables us to do more ministry, and we continue to be amazed at what God is doing. We are seeing God increase every area of our ministry! Nicole Vaughn joined our staff in October as our first female area representative in North Alabama! She brings a new dynamic to the ministry and we’re excited for the new opportunities that will be afforded the ministry because of her ministry experience. She’s doing popsicle blasts for the girls’ basketball teams in our counties, (Below top) and is planning to start women’s Bible studies on our campuses after the first of the year. She’s also reaching out to new partners for financial support, so if you would like to partner with Nicole please contact our office, 256.765.0313. We had over 600 students and adults attend our two Iron Bowl Breakfasts in November. (Below bottom) Jason Bosley, a former Auburn player, and

Ben Howell and Taylor Morton, former Alabama players, shared their testimonies and we know at least 43 jr. high, high school and college students made decisions to make Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior as a result of attending the breakfasts. Praise The Lord!

Several of our area coaches attended the FCA Coaches Brunch (Above) with guest speaker, Auburn Coach Tim Horton, who challenged them with the Word of God. Campus Huddles are growing at Central HS (Below), Brewer HS (Bottom), and Priceville JHS just to mention a few!

Brian Legg, NAL Leadership Board member and FCA STEER Program Director, has been instrumental in increasing the STEER program to a total of 27 cows from 15 at the beginning of the year!
