“Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life that you are called to, the life by which you so fervently embraced in the presence of many witnesses.”
– 1 Timothy 6:12, The Message
Student athletes from five CCC senior academies (Armona Union Academy, Bakersfield Adventist Academy, Central Valley Christian Academy, Fresno Adventist Academy, and Mountain View Academy) came together at CVCA on the weekend of January 10-12, 2025 for another tournament weekend filled with opportunities to connect with their peers, their community, and with their heavenly Father.

One special highlight of these three days was the opportunity for these young people to come together start the Sabbath right with distribution of food boxes to members of the CVCA community, before heading to Ceres Seventh-day Adventist Church to lead out Sabbath service! Check out the bulletin!

The whole service was centered on serving God by serving others, and by allowing the
students the opportunity to share their testimonies of how the Friendship Games Sports Ministry has brought them closer to Jesus as their best friend.
