A creed is a set a beliefs that guide one's actions, a statement of the shared beliefs of a spiritual community in the form of a fixed formula summarizing core tenets. Our AIA Creed is in poetic form to help with memorization. Soak this up and take it to heart so you can "be what you were meant to be: Total Athletes."
This is Athletes In Action.
We play for an Audience of One.
We compete with a grace motivation
And pursue a victory beyond competition.
We will get dirty
And we will face tragedy
And, yes, most likely injury.
But that does not change our identity
As players on God's winning team
Or better yet, as children in God's family.
For in light of His mercy
We truly are free
To become what we were meant to be: Total Athletes
Spirit, mind, and body
That bows the knee to the One, True King
J-C, Jesus Christ
Who is he? The Ultimate MVP,
The Servant, The Son, the Perfect Champion
Who says it is all done.
And yet, it has just begun.
And yes, all are welcome.
This is Athletes In Action.
