Last night, high school students and student athletes from across the Wiregrass participated in the 2012 Wiregrass Fields of Faith event. Fields of Faith is a nationwide Fellowship of Christian Athletes event held on sports fields across the nation. The goal is to encourage Christian students and student athletes to grow in their faith, read the Bible and share their faith with fellow students.
This year's Wiregrass event was held at Northcutt Field. Eagle Eye Outfitters helped sponsor the event, and several employees took part. Store Manager Dustin Lee welcomed students to the event and called out the names of area schools that were represented. Students from each school responded with shouts and cheers to make their presence known.
Local praise band Subject to Change, led by Eagle Eye staff members, led the students in worship. Three local high school students shared their testimonies and encouraged the students in attendance to live out their faith on and off the athletic field. Wiregrass FCA Director Lonnie Cochran then encouraged the students with a message.
Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the event a success!
