Why we exist

Soccer + Faith + Community

We believe football is more than a game — it’s a platform to love people, build friendships, and share the message of reconciliation with God.

AFJC was born from a vision received in prayer and Scripture (2 Corinthians 5:18–21).

We pray before every game, honor one another, and represent Christ through our attitude — in victory and in pressure.

We welcome people of any nationality and background, especially immigrants who are new to life in the U.S.

Team motto

Strength

A reminder that we rely on the power of the Holy Spirit — not just talent.

Core verse

We are ambassadors for Christ… be reconciled to God.
