Where do you attend school?
Prairie Central High School
What grade are you in? I am a Junior

How long have you been involved in FCA? Three years
Why/How did you get involved in FCA?
Shelby Fulk was the one who opened my eyes to this organization and told me that I should play a part in it at my own high school, so I went to our FCA adviser and asked him how I could get involved.
How has FCA helped you to know and grow in Christ? Through FCA, I have made so many friendships with the Summer camp I went to as well as in my own school. These friendships help keep me accountable and grounded in the truth of Christ. FCA has also given me the opportunity to share the love I have for the Lord, learn more about his truth/promise, and also bring others to get to know their creator. I also have been able to grow my relationship with the Lord by doing huddles and hearing other people's stories that then just inspire me to dig deeper into the word.
What legacy do you hope to leave as an athlete? I hope that I am able to show others that there is so much more to sports than just the game. God gave us the gift of being able to play this game, so as humans we need to give God all the glory because he was the one who gave his life for us. I want others to know that my relationship with the Lord doesn't stop when I put my cleats on.
