The Brownwood High School FCA huddle recently partnered with
Samaritan Purse’s Operation Christmas
Child to bless needy children around the world. The mission of Operation
Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to needy
children around the world, and together with the local church worldwide, to
share the Good News of Jesus Christ. The FCA students enjoyed a fun evening
and packed over a dozen shoe box gifts with toys and necessities that they
purchased. They prayed over the journey of each box and child who receives it. It
is a simple gift, but makes an incredible impact both on the giver and the recipient.
The Brownwood students were reminded of the joy and spirit of Christmas giving.
The children who receive these boxes will share that joy and ultimately hear of
the true reason for the season, the gospel of Jesus Christ. This is just one
way FCA is sharing Christ and revealing His love through coaches and athletes,
not only locally, but also globally.
The Brownwood High School FCA huddle meets every Monday
night at 7:30pm, and the Middle School FCA huddle meets every Thursday during
their lunch periods. Ty Lang, JB Gibbs, and Josh Alcorn are the Brownwood
coaches who assist the students in leading the high school FCA huddle, and Judy
Kennedy and Scott Swanzy are the middle school FCA huddle coaches. Please
remember to be in prayer for our coaches and athletes. God has blessed our
schools in this area with many godly administrators, teachers, and coaches, but
the fields are still white with harvest.
