Backstory:
In Fall of 2020 God did a miracle...
During one of the craziest of our lifetime the opportunity arrived of being able to purchase a physical site for FCA to have a hub and a home located at NKU. A perfectly located house previously known as the Christian Student Fellowship went for sale.
For us to buy it, we needed a large amount of cash...quickly. God, through his people, answered our prayers and $108,000 was pledged within 21 days to be able to buy what's now known as the "FCA House" right next to NKU's campus.
2021-2023: Since then, God's still been on the move!
With this incredible ministry tool to utilize, we've continued to see life change like never before.
Countless hours have been spent at the FCA House:
- Having heart level conversations
- Hosting bible studies
- Meals and outreach events
- Baptism celebrations
- Worship nights
- Open hours for coffee and studying
- Fellowship over games, movies, campfires, and of course...ping pong!
Soo..what's going on now?
Nate "randomly" runs into Cambron, the Pastor of Asbury Methodist Church close to NKU at a coffee shop that's 20 min away from campus. They struck up a relationship and began to learn of each other's ministries.
Long story short, Cambron informs Nate that a house they own that's currently utilized by another campus ministry is going to become vacant soon.
That began off and on conversations regarding this house for several months.
Interesting timing because NKU's FCA was no long able to easily host the number of people showing up in the basement of the FCA house...we were tapped out! We couldn't handle the idea of someone new showing up and them not feeling like we had room for them.
So, we've since had our Monday night gatherings on campus is a large meeting which is much less like the "home away from home" our athletes cherished.
