The Kansas City chapter has expanded to include a summer camp, a competitive drill team and a horse-riding academy. The first camp in 2022 had 12 riders and one clinician, while the 2023 camp doubled to 24 riders and two clinicians. This year also marks the second season of a drill team with 11 riders, a head coach and an assistant coach who leads the Huddle time at every practice. The goal is to empower the riders to share the message of Jesus at various equestrian events throughout the Kansas City area. Any riders who aren’t ready for the drill team can still participate in the academy’s ongoing discipleship and instruction.
Utilizing the E3 strategy and curriculum for Huddles, teams and camps, FCA Equestrian in Kansas City is seeing life- changing impact and multiplication among its coaches and athletes. One rider decided to place her trust in Jesus after hearing the testimonies of her teammates. Another rider committed to seek the Lord and attend church after leaving a Huddle, an answer to her mother’s longtime prayers.
“God is working in and through FCA Equestrian to make disciples who multiply in a whole new environment of coaches and athletes,” Johnson said.
