It’s All About “ONE TEAM” in Avon

A spirit of community celebrated through the Fellowship of Christian Athletes visited Avon’s Mark Wahlberg Stadium the evening of Sept. 3 when the Glenville football team played the host Eagles.

The game followed up on the ONE TEAM movement initiated by the FCA over the summer in an effort to “Be the Change you Seek.” Here is the post from FCA’s Nobles Darby IV summarizing the effort:

“This past summer Glenville, Avon, John Hay and North Olmsted football teams and coaches met for our first ever FCA “ONE TEAM” camp. The inner city and suburbs came together to do football and more importantly life together for a few days under the banner of unity. Because God made us all in his image, regardless of inner city or suburb, black or white we are all ONE people, and in this case ONE TEAM‼️

“Out of this camp friendships were formed and the Holy Spirit moved freely throughout all involved. This past Friday, Avon and Glenville met to play one other and this moment catalyzes what was started this summer. God was glorified and there’s much more to come from this story that’s being written…

“‘…for you are all ONE in Christ Jesus.’
