FCA MEETS TONIGHT AT 9 WITH JEREMIAH CASTILLE SHARING

 

            Tonight, Jeremiah Castille will continue his series on “The Heart of a Champion.” Students listen intently as Jeremiah delivers good advice and the truth from God’s Word that stirs the heart of every listener.

 

            Make a special effort to spend an hour being spiritually strengthened and enjoying the fellowship of fellow students at our programs. FCA meets in the Calvary Baptist College Annex at 9 sharp and refreshments are always served afterwards.

 

            LAST WEEK: It was indeed a treat to have Victor Marx, who wowed everyone with his self-defense skills and incredible story of overcoming great adversity in his young life. We hope to have him back again in the future.
