Vision Statement **
Our
God is an awesome God who has provided us with talents
to honor Him. Those of us in the Mount Airy Christian
Academy Lions Athletic Program picture God working from
His toolbox to fix a hurting world. The Lord uses a
variety of tools at His disposal: church congregations,
youth groups, missions, educational programs, and many
others. He also has athletics. Our Lord wants us to
use athletics not to glorify our own prowess or abilities,
but as a ministry to glorify Him. As the Great Commission
(Matthew 28:19) commands, we are intended to go forth
and spread the Good News. MACA’s student-athletes
have been instilled with the Good News of Christ and
are ready to share it through their sport.
With
that in mind, the MACA Athletic Booster Club is called
to financially support the school’s Athletic Program
through various fundraisers. One important way funds
raised will be used is to send one Varsity team on a
mission trip each year. The Booster Club hopes to cover
most or all of the cost of the trip so the student-athletes
can focus on their mission. Hopefully, they also will
enjoy playing a little sport as part of their ministry.
The
MACA Lions Athletic Program does not focus on winning
championships, but rather on reaching out to lost souls
and developing those who are walking with Christ. The
Booster Club feels it appropriate to take time each
year to thank God for the opportunities he has provided
through sports at MACA and celebrate the stories and
events God has created (Psalms 126:2). The Booster Club
hosts a memorable sports banquet where student-athletes,
their parents, and friends can gather together for fellowship
and to rejoice in what the Lord has accomplished.
MACA
and the Athletic Program are good stewards of the funds
God has provided. The Booster Club believes that part
of its own stewardship includes assisting with meeting
the physical needs of the Athletic Program. To that
end, a portion of funds raised are used to purchase
uniforms and equipment that the Athletic Program might
otherwise not be able to afford.
In
addition to supporting a mission trip, the sports banquet,
and assisting with program costs, the MACA Athletic
Booster Club is called to the important task of consistently
praying for the Athletic Program (Colossians 4:2 &
1 Thessalonians 5:17). The Booster Club prays diligently
that our student-athletes, their parents, coaches, friends,
spectators, and opponents are all touched by the awesomeness
and love of our God.
