One of the ministries Faithpoint has committed to partnering with throughout the years is the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). Below you will find a letter that the Frederick County area Director, Chris Rich, sent out. In this small snapshot you can see the wonderful work that FCA is doing with our young people. As many of you know the Urban, and all of Frederick county is serious about athletics in the schools. Through this partnership, I have been able to be a part of the FCA ministry at the Urbana Middle school and connect with resources, people and foster relationships that assist Faithpoint church live into our mission and vision.
Enjoy the Words for Chris Rich:

Looking to 2013
As we look toward 2013 we have some big goals. We expect to see our Campus Ministry explode in 2013. We have a vision to see every middle school, high school and college in Frederick County be impacted by FCA in 2013. We cannot do this without your support! You are instrumental in this process and we look forward to partnering again in 2013. The Campus ministry model has changed in recent years. This now includes Team Character Coaches, Team Bible Studies, Coaches Huddles as well as the huddle that has been so instrumental for so many years. We would like to see all of our campuses have each of these pieces in the next 5 years! You are a huge part of that and we can’t wait to continue to update you and partner with you in this process.
