Everything we do at Bethlehem Catholic, including our athletics, flows from our Christ-centered Catholic identity and mission. And so today we launched our first ever chapter for Catholic Athletes for Christ (CAC)! CAC is a growing apostolate that seeks to help athletes grow in holiness, discipleship, and virtue. The goal of CAC is to proclaim the saving Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ through athletics. Athletics can be a great vehicle for grace and the Holy Spirit and we want our athletes to glorify God in all that they do. We are blessed with so many awesome coaches who are committed to helping our student athletes grow in virtue as well as in their relationship with Christ.
CAC will consist of the student athletes meeting twice a month all together to pray, discuss their faith, and a particular virtue and how they can grow in that virtue together, all while striving for holiness and discipleship. Our coaches will help lead CAC along with our amazing student athletes. If student athletes want to gather more on their own with their individual teams, they are encouraged to do so! CAC will essentially be student-led under the guidance of our coaches, our Athletic Director, and Chaplain. CAC will also invite guest speakers in from the world of sports to address our student-athletes and inspire, challenge, and motivate them in their journey of faith.
A huge thank you to our Athletic Director, Mr. Matt Corsi, for enthusiastically leading this new initiative and for getting it off the ground so that our student-athletes have every opportunity to grow in holiness, discipleship, and virtue!
