Since 1966, Athletes in Action has been a global pioneer, innovator, and servant leader in sports ministry.  AIA seeks to help the world’s athletes, coaches, fans and all of those impacted by sport grow athletically, mentally and spiritually.

Countless volunteers, thousands of athletes and more than 500 staff members comprise AIA’s presence in 75 countries, on nearly 125 U.S. college campuses, and on 35 U.S. professional sports teams.

Our ministry statement is…

To create a community of people within the athletic department who would be multipliers of loving God and loving people.

Our number one priority for you as a student athlete is…

That you grow in your love relationship with God (Matt 22:36-39).

Our vision for AIA at SMU is..

That one in ten athletes in every sport is growing in their relationship with Jesus and leading a movement where God is changing lives.  Our heart behind that vision is to trust God to change the culture in Dallas to glorify and reflect Him.

This is student-led movement under the supervision of an AIA Staff member coaching them. To find more information about AIA at SMU, contact Jared at Jared.Carter@athletesinaction.org
