St. Louis City & County

A certified small group bible study/devotion for coaches and athletes.

Our Huddle Locations

Student athletes lead FCA campus "huddles" all around St. Louis. Huddles meet typically 2-4 times each month for spiritual encouragement through fun and fellowship. FCA meetings are a safe place for athletes to discuss issues both on and off the court/fild with other athletes, and to look to God's word for guidance.

Kaylee Cooper

Propsective Staff

Kaylee is a 3-time national champion and 3-time All-American NCAA athlete at Lindenwood University. Beyond her decorated athletic career, Kaylee is a catalytic, prayer-warring, servant-hearted leader, who has discovered the treasures of this world to be rubbish compared to the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus as her Savior.

Kaylee was introduced to FCA during her first year of college where she experienced that intersection of her two greatest loves: sports and the gospel.

With a deep burden for the lost and a passionate desire for coaches and athletes to come into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and His church, joining FCA has been a step of faith, obedience, and profound joy for her.
