The Winthrop Fellowship of Christian Athletics focuses on serving communities around the globe by engaging, equipping and empowering coaches and athletes to unite, inspire and change the world through the gospel. Winthrop FCA Chaplin Angie Lanier said, “As the Winthrop FCA campus ministry representative I have had the pleasure of coming alongside these leaders to equip, serve, and strengthen their faith and support Winthrop Athletics. We support the athletic department and help guide and support them throughout their time in this program.”
This past month, Winthrop FCA has been gathering in fellowship to support various Winthrop Athletics teams. Every few weeks, students decide to dedicate their support to a different Winthrop sports team.
“The FCA community is so important to me because it gives me a place of commonality. I love people, believer or not, but FCA is a home base. Seeing their support on and off the field has meant so much to me. It has helped me to grow deep in in my fellowship with other students,” said Natalie Royaards, who is on the women’s soccer team.
Winthrop FCA is open to all students and meets every Monday night in Owens G02 with the goal of helping athletes to know and grow in Christ and encourage others to do the same.
