The Trevor Stauffer Memorial Alumni Scholarship Fund
In honor of their former classmate, JCS graduate, Trevor Stauffer, the Class of 1980 has begun a scholarship fund to enable continued financial support for families whose children could not attend FCA without some financial assistance. As these alumni planned for their 30 year reunion, they raised $3,500 as a first contribution!
If you are interested in making a contribution, please send your check payable to FCA to:
(write in the memo) The Trevor Stauffer Scholarship Fund Faith Christian Academy Superintendent's Office 12189 W 64th Avenue Arvada, CO 80004
Credit card contributions are also accepted by calling the FCA Accounting Department at 303.424.7310, ext. 92209
Alumni Highlights
What do the Coca-Cola Museum in Atlanta, Georgia; Coors' Field, the home of the Colorado Rockies; Sunflower Market in Arvada; the airport in Las Vegas; South Africa; American Idol, and multiple television shows such as Grey’s Anatomy have in common? Alumni Isaac Slade, '99, and Joe King, '98, can be heard singing with their band The Fray. The Fray has released its second CD and has recently returned from a concert tour in the British Isles and Europe. God has blessed the band with sold- out concerts at Red Rocks, two Grammy nominations, the number one hit in Australia, and multiple awards for number of songs and CDs sold. Watch for them continue to make an impact on the music world.
Jeff Neely, '86, put on a backpack after graduation and headed to Sweden to do a Discipleship Training School with Youth With A Mission. Since that time God has moved him through a number of different areas of responsibility. Today he is working with a group called Vision 5:9 which is a large group of mission organizations working to fulfill the prophecy in Revelation 5:9 that every tongue and every tribe will be before the throne of God. In addition, the international leaders of YWAM recently prayed over Jeff as he takes on a new role in reaching one of the most challenging groups of people who are still largely unreached. Many things Jeff sees as he travels the world is that the "fields are white with the harvest" among these people.
Jeff and his family have been made keenly aware of the attacks they face in their ministry. The immediate family has experienced chronic illness, and the extended family has had life-threatening accidents at times that were crucial to the ministry Jeff and his wife Tamara have been leading. They would appreciate your prayers.
Jordan Long, '04, recently completed his basketball career at Colorado Christian University where he led the Cougars to a final four finish in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference tournament. He was voted team MVP and Second Team All Conference this season. Jordan finished his career number 2 in career assists at CCU and number 3 in RMAC. Jordan is considering offers to play professional basketball in Australia during the upcoming season, and eventually plans to attend the Fire Academy.
