Last spring, Kevin Gabaree, Brownwood ISD's Deputy Superintendent and local FCA Board Chairman spoke to the Brownwood High School FCA huddle. Mr. Gabaree shared his faith journey with the students and how God used the influence of a coach, during his high schoiol years at Copperas Cove, to lead him to Jesus Christ.
I wanted to highlight this testimony for two reasons. One, Gabaree's story confirms the mission and vision of FCA. Coaches have an incredible platform to eternally impact young people. That is why we see it as a strategic way to share the gospel on public school campuses and around the world by ministering to and through coaches.
Secondly, we have a lot to be thankful for in this area when it comes to the coaches, teachers and administrative leadership in our public schools. It is not every day that you find a superintendent like Kevin Gabaree who truly cares about the students enough to take time out of his busy evening to share the most important message in the world with the FCA huddle, which is a student-led on campus Bible study meeting. We are blessed in Brownwood.
