Divine Power

The majestic beauty of Niagara Falls is no secret to the world. Millions of tourists visit the falls every year to take in its resplendent sights and experience the grandeur of the 170-foot waterfalls that separate the United States and Canada. What few people know, however, is that the water cascading over the falls was first harnessed in 1759 as a way of supplying power to a small sawmill. Now, more than two centuries later, Niagara Falls still provides electricity, but on a much larger scale, serving as the largest power source for the entire state of New York.
Logically then, most mentions of Niagara’s “power” are considered references to the surging waters that light up the state. Rarely is a connection made to the other Power from Niagara—one that generates greater light than even Horseshoe Falls itself.
This Niagara Power is FCA’s collegiate-level summer league baseball team. Founded in 2007 by FCA’s Cal and Sherrie Kern, the team has been impacting players, coaches and even the community not by sharing the light of science and technology, but by shining the light of Jesus Christ.
In a region where ministry is often met with great resistance, the Kerns have been able to make inroads by bringing the sport to the baseball-hungry people of Niagara. The presence of the team has been positive in so many ways that no one seems to mind that they are fully affiliated with a Christian ministry.

Update
One of the Niagara Power’s biggest fans is FCA Baseball National Director David Daly, who
sees the work that is being done in New York as a great avenue through which FCA can reach people for Christ
through baseball. Each member of the visiting teams in Sal Maglie Stadium in Niagara receives a free copy of
the FCA Baseball New Testament, which features
testimonies from some of the
biggest names in the game. Already, FCA Baseball has given away more than 10,000 New Testaments and is
currently raising the funds to distribute another 10,000. To find out more about what God is doing through
the FCA Baseball ministry, visit

Yes, Niagara may be known for one of the most famous natural sights in the U.S., but locally, the Niagara Power baseball team is becoming a landmark of its own.
