Tori Atkinson joined the FCA team in February 2024 as an Area Representative in Hall of Fame Area FCA in Ohio. Tori was blessed to grow up in a Christian home and made a personal decision to surrender her life to Christ’s Will when she was twelve years old.

While attending the University of Mount Union in 2020, the Lord remembered her promise and began to call her into ministry. She then served as a leader of the university’s FCA huddle for her remaining college career and devoted herself to the spiritual ministry of her college peers. While working for the football team as a student assistant coach, she invited athletes to attend FCA and had the privilege of witnessing many of them surrender to Christ.

In 2023, Tori graduated from Mount Union with a degree in neuroscience, and her relationship with the Lord grew even deeper as she looked to Him for her next steps. This season of eagerly seeking the Lord’s Will prepared her to follow when He invited and led her to join the FCA staff in full-time ministry months later. Knowing firsthand how God has used FCA to powerfully impact and change the lives of so many students, it is Tori’s great joy to join in God’s work and see lives set free and transformed by Christ. Her great desire is for salvation to abound and the Spirit to be poured out for the commissioning of disciples who are fully equipped and impassioned to make more disciples. In all things, Tori leans on the Lord for strength and provision as she follows Him in this work and raises financial support.

When she is not actively working in the ministry, Tori enjoys traveling, hiking, learning new things (e.g. archery, playing the piano, etc.), being with her family, reading, singing, and of course, spending time with the Lord in prayer and scripture. All her life, Tori has longed for the adventure of being on mission for Jesus and helping others find true healing in Him, just as the apostles did in the New Testament. With a passion for evangelism and discipleship, Tori feels truly blessed to be gifted with this position in FCA which gives her the opportunity to do just that.
