Fellowship of Christian Athletes
From ClemsonWiki
Clemson University's Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) is the largest student run FCA chapter in the country. Weekly meetings are held on Thursday nights at 7:17 and 9:19 usually in Tillman Auditorium. Weekly attendance ranges from 600 to 3000. Weekly meetings usually consist of announcements, music (usually by the FCA band), skits, videos, and a speaker. Although the national FCA organization is geared towards ministering towards athletes, Clemson's FCA is much less specific with ministries in many areas. Most people who attend FCA or are involved with its ministries are not athletes.
