KY FCA Tennis Camp is Back! June 22-24 @ Asbury!
Central Kentucky FCA will once again be hosting the KY FCA Tennis Camp this summer for Jr. and Sr. High students! We probably get more requests about this camp than any other camps so we are so excited that it will once again be taking place here in Central Kentucky! We are limited in space (probably about 75 campers) so please register ASAP! We are also looking for about 14 college age/young adults with a tennis background to serve as Huddle Leaders. Coach Dennis and Brenda Emery will be heading up the skills side of the camp, but they are looking for help if you would like to volunteer as a coach as well.
On-line registration is now open! We hope to see you there this summer! As always, please call if you have any questions.

FCA Camp Report 2 – Team Camp @ Asbury
Just wanted to update you all on the FCA Team Camp that took place last week at Asbury College. This year’s camp nearly doubled in size from last year. With nearly 400 campers participating in Basketball, Wrestling and Tennis we saw God do some amazing things through sports and through our time during chapel as many students indicated to us that they trusted in Christ as their Savior and Lord for the first time!
To me, this camp was an incredible success! Not necessarily because of the visible response and the feedback we received (although that has been awesome…see below), but because of all the team camps we have done, I feel that the good news was shared and presented in such a clear and truthful way that no one could have been there and not have come face to face with their need for a savior. Here is what one boys basketball coach emailed to us after the camp:
As the Biblical base song says, “Great is thy Faithfulness”, referring to God and what He truly is, has been and always will be. Also, as we are to be Christ like, it refers to you! Thank you for believing and obeying and staying true to the vision He gave to you. Because of that,I know of six young men that have been in our program during the last four years that have heard the word, answered the conviction of the Holy Spirit on their souls, and will now spend an eternity in Heaven! How Awesome is that? Thanks to you and your staff for staying True to the Call, we are forever grateful.Have a continued Great summer – Serving Him! We love you,Randy
Make no mistake… He is thanking you for making this possible! Much more to come on this camp… Perhaps one of the most amazing “God things” happened at this camp and I can’t wait to share it with you. We want to make sure that it is down just right before we do…

Camp Report 1
Hello FCA!
I just wanted to shoot you a quick update on how the camps are going!
TEAM GOLF CAMP LAST WEEK!
Last week we hosted our 4th Annual FCA Team Golf Camp! Overall the camp was fabulous. We had about 80 golfers, coaches, and college huddle leaders participate and a special guest appearance from Nationwide Tour Player Josh Teater. Central Hardin won the team competition and lost of kids made great strides in their game! Most of all I think there was significant spiritual growth.
There was one particular young man (middle school) that really touched me. He shared with me that he had always wondered if when he prayed if he was really talking to God or just to himself. The first night of camp he prayed that God would help him play the best round of golf of his life the next day. God met him where he was at and sure enough, he played his best ever. It didn’t dawn on him until the following night at chapel what had happened and with tears in his eyes and the biggest smile you have ever seen, he shared with me that he knew that God was real and that he had invited Christ to come into his life! Another young man shared with me how he would be returning home to apologize to his mother (his father passed away many years ago) for how he had been treating her the past year. I got to see Godly sorrow lead to repentance in this young man, right before my eyes.
BOYS BLACK MOUNTAIN CAMP LAST WEEK!
Last week, we also had a large group of kids from Mercer and Boyle Counties attend Black Mountain Boys FCA Camp near Ashville, NC. Read an incredible testimoney from that camp here.
NEXT WEEK!!!
Next week is our biggest week of the summer! Monday morning starts our “Team Camp” at Asbury (expecting over 400!) and then Wednesday we will start our Leadership Camp at Campbellsville University (Over 400 there too!). Please keep us in your prayers…Lots of details to take care of!
I REALLY want to encourage you to visit an FCA camp if it is not possible for you to attend as an adult camper or student camper. Monday and Tuesday night in Hughes Chapel at Asbury, we will be having our evening Chapel meetings starting at 8:30PM. Everyone is invited!
Thanks for your support and prayers! More to come!
P.S. It’s still not to late to attend the Leadership Camp! We also still have some spots for camp counselors at the Team Camp (Basketball, Wrestling, and Tennis) and Leadership Camp. Contact ASAP if interested in serving!
