Field VP: Mark Boyer

Ministry Moment: Last camp season, a high school student in our area who is homeless wanted to go to FCA Camp, but couldn’t afford it. Through an FCA Camp scholarship, the student’s mother donating plasma, and his FCA Huddle Coach donating money, the young basketball player was able to attend camp and, while there, he accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior.

Prayer Requests:

1. Upcoming camp ministry this summer in the Western Region, especially large regional camps at UCLA and UC Davis.

2. God's direction as we strategically plan for the 2016-17 fiscal year.

3. That our staff would be spiritually renewed and encouraged as they enjoy family and vacation time this summer.

Prayer Requests:

1. That God will raise up board members who have a passion for seeing the gospel spread through FCA in our region.

Prayer Requests:

1. New FCA Camps in our region. For the directors, staff and scholarship funds for campers who need assistance.

2. Our region’s ministry opportunities in Brazil. We have upcoming trips scheduled to build ministry coalitions and work for fruitful partnerships.
