BRING 'EM HOME

The invitation to come home

In just two years, God has grown our FCA Multi-Sport Camp from a small gathering at Northwest University to a life-changing experience for hundreds at Pacific Lutheran University. Now, in year three, we’re ready to bring camp home—to Seattle—so even more athletes, coaches, and volunteers can encounter the truth, grace, and love of Jesus right here in our own backyard.

Our dream is for Seattle to become the permanent home for FCA Multi-Sport Camp, a central hub where high school athletes from across the region can experience powerful worship, Christ-centered community, and spiritual transformation through sport.

But with every new opportunity comes new challenges. A move to Seattle brings significantly higher costs for housing, meals, and facilities—expenses we don’t want to pass on to campers, coaches, or volunteers who already give so much of themselves to make camp possible.

That’s why we’re asking our friends, alumni, and supporters to partner with us. Together, we can raise $150,000 by May 15th to help bring camp home to Seattle in 2026—ensuring that cost never becomes a barrier to experiencing the life-changing hope of Christ.

Camp Spotlight

Being a huddle leader this past summer with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes is an experience I will never forget. Growing up Christian and staying strong in my faith throughout my life is something I’ve always cherished. I know that many kids who come to FCA Camp during the summer are either seeking Christ or looking to deepen their faith, and being part of their journey—walking alongside them, praying with them, and helping them understand the love of the Lord—was truly unforgettable.

Going into Camp, I was nervous. I knew these kids were looking for a leader, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready. But with the support of my mentors and the guidance of Christ, I found confidence in my ability to lead. That experience taught me a lot about trust, humility, and stepping into the calling God places on your heart.

My time as a collegiate rower has also shaped me into a stronger leader. Rowing is a sport built on unity, accountability, and resilience. Every day on the water, I’ve learned how to communicate better, support my teammates, and hold myself to a high standard. Being part of such a disciplined and dedicated team has taught me what it means to lead by example, through hard work, grace, and commitment. These lessons naturally carried over into my role as a huddle leader, where I was able to encourage campers with the same teamwork, perseverance, and positivity that my teammates and coaches had instilled in me.

To bring that same energy and leadership to an FCA environment in Seattle would be a dream come true. Growing up only 15 minutes away, I’ve always admired this city and the strength of the community it represents. I hope future FCA campers can come to Seattle and experience that same beauty—not only in God’s creation all around us, but also in a place that has shaped me so deeply as a student, an athlete, and a believer. To pray together in a place that feels like home is something I hope these young followers of Christ will get to experience too.
