Coaches Ministry
At the heart of FCA are coaches. We are very fortunate at WVU to have numerous godly coaches that desire to coach in a Christ centered fashion. Our role is to minister to these men and women by encouraging and equipping them to know and serve Christ. FCA ministers to coaches through Bible studies, staff contacts, prayer support, discipleship and mentoring, Behind the Bench (a program for coaches wives), resources, outreach events, national and local conventions, conferences and retreats.
What Is Our Purpose?
To empower and equip coaches, helping them to live and coach with biblical principles through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our Key Objectives
- To support the coaching staff of WVU spiritually. Coaching is a demanding profession, therefore, it is our objective to minister to our coaches, helping them to balance their lives in a godly manner.
- To present the opportunity to know Christ personally and to live out their faith in their families, teams and private lives.
- To provide in-depth training in the principles of biblical coaching, discipleship skills, leadership development, and mentoring skills.

What we must also realize is that these Olympics provide an amazing opportunity for us to stand together in prayer. Not only can we stand in agreement for the protection, favor and strength of the athletes and coaches competing, but we also can seize the opportunity to ask for the nations.
