Huddle Coach of the Month
Robert George- Helena Middle School Robert George has been a huddle coach for FCA for 15 years and currently leads a huddle at Helena Middle School where he coaches football and basketball. FCA has been a part of his life since he was in high school and was an officer in his high school FCA huddle.
Robert was led to the Lord through his FCA huddle in high school and wants to make sure his students have the same opportunities to hear God’s Word that he did. He has led the Helena Middle School huddle for the two years he has been at the school.
“I accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior on May 5, 1973, at a church service that our FCA huddle was invited to,” he recalls. “My favorite Bible verse is Proverbs 3:5-6: ‘Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will direct your paths.’”
Robert has been following God since that day. He got his degree in Education at UAB and his Masters of Administration from the University of Montevallo. He and his wife, Brenda, have been married for 31 years and have a daughter, Megan, who is studying interior design at Auburn University. Robert enjoys going on vacation with his family and attending Auburn football games.
Currently, Robert and his huddle members are studying the book of James, and members are planning a banquet to recognize the Helena Middle School FCA students in the community. He says this year’s huddle students are focusing on how to be accountable in their walk with Jesus and with others.
“Through the years, being a FCA huddle leader has made me more accountable for my actions and speech around people, because I know the students and other coaches are watching me,” he says. “It also makes me more accountable in my praying and reading God’s Word.”
