WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Bible to be the only inspired, trustworthy and true, without error, Word of God
2 Timothy 3:16-17
There is only one God who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit
Matthew 28:19
Jesus Christ is God, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His death that paid for, our sin through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension/rising up to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory
John 1:1 • Matthew 1:18,25 • Hebrews 4:15 • Hebrews 9:15-22 • 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 • Acts 1:9-11 • Hebrews 9:27-28
Acceptance of Jesus Christ and the corresponding renewal of the Holy Spirit are the only paths to salvation for lost/sinful men and women

Spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, that all believers are members of His body, the Church
Philippians 2:1-4
God’s design for sexual intimacy is to be expressed only within the context of marriage, that God created man and woman to complement and complete each other. God instituted marriage between one man and one woman as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society. For this reason, we believe that marriage is exclusively the union of one man and one woman
Genesis 2:24 • Matthew 19:5-6 • Mark 10:6-9 • Romans 1:26-27 • 1 Corinthians 6:9
God created all human beings in His image. Therefore, we believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end; that we must honor the physical and spiritual needs of all people; following Christ’s example, we believe that every person should be treated with love, dignity and respect
Psalm 139:13 • Isaiah 49:1 • Jeremiah 1:5 • Matthew 22:37-39 • Romans 12:20-21 • Galatians 6:10
In eternal life, and that through belief in Jesus Christ as the Son of God, we spend eternity with the Lord in Heaven. We believe that in rejecting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we receive eternal suffering in hell
Matthew 25:31-46 • 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
FCA Hawai'i's History
In the late 70's....
David Horne launched FCA throughout Oahu and the University of Hawaii. To this day, many who came to Jesus and those who were encouraged by the FCA ministry are leading their own teams today.
In 2007...
Barrett Awai was hired by Youth For Christ Hawaii to do high school huddles. As he studied more on FCA’s 4 C’s, he saw a much larger population FCA needed to reach. YFC Hawaii was very supportive of seeing this growth through.
On July 1, 2009...
FCA hired Barrett as its sole employee to direct its operations. Now, Barrett is the assistant Kahu at Kamehameha Kapālama. He is a wonderful friend, guide and foundation for the current, leader Daniel Rich.
In 2015...
Tua Mahaley took FCA to the next level alongside Barrett! He trained students and volunteers, led new events, and loved and served brilliantly. He is now married to Shanna and is living in the Seattle area!
In 2019...
Daniel Rich has initiated a focus on hiring leaders from Hawaii to lead the coaches and athletes in their communities. There is a strong focus on developing leaders to go and share their faith within their schools and sports teams.
Today...
FCA Hawaii is a group of believers who are passionate about sports, pursuing God's desires, partnering in fellowship with their churches, and sharing the Gospel throughout their communities.
Join the fellowship. You are FCA Hawaii.
