We are once again hosting our FCA golf scramble to help send students to summer FCA camps and purchase Bibles. This year‘s event will take place at the Lindsey Wilson Pines golf course in Columbia on June 12, 2026. Your support last year was greatly appreciated and we hope you will consider us again this year. Our huddle leaders and coaches are meeting with hundreds of students in Adair, Russell, Clinton and Cumberland counties each week.

Thanks so much for your prayers and support,

Mark Fudge
