For those of you who would like to attend FUEL (our weekly meeting) but do not know where the Winthrop Tonkens room is, meet us as the John Harvard statue at 7:45pm on Wendesday, Aug. 31st. Hope to see you then! If you have any questions, contact Angie (857) 234-3194.

Harvard Athletes in Action is a fellowship of students with the simple mission statement, “Loving God, loving people, loving sports.”  We are committed to loving Christ and sharing this love with the greater campus, with a special focus on the relevancy of Christ’s teachings in the life of a student-athlete.  Vital to our mission is serving our community, as well as supporting and building each other up in our respective walks with the Lord.  As part of this mission, AIA hosts various events throughout the year to serve others, make a positive impact on campus, and unite athletes, such as our beginning-of-the-year Freshman BBQ and Dodgeball tournament.  The AIA meeting is a welcoming environment for anyone to come and hear Christ’s message of love, discuss deep life issues, praise God through song, or simply have fellowship with other student-athletes.  It is a source of community, support, and outreach.

As part of an effort to increase interaction between fellowship groups and to form a more tight-knit community among Christians on campus, AIA and its sister organization, Christian Impact, work closely together, merging their meetings into one large group Fuel meeting each week. Along with enjoying a more united community and closer fellowship with CI, AIA will nonetheless continue to pursue its mission, support small group fellowships across sports, and serve as community of student-athletes committed to sharing Christ’s love on their teams and throughout the campus.

Our main events:

FUEL, Wednesdays at 8pm in the Winthrop Tonkens Room: our weekly meeting with worship, a speaker, fellowship and fun!
