Tony and Tola Capo "To see a day when there are Christ-followers on every team, in every sport, in every nation."

OUR STORY - We were born in the beautiful country of Albania. Tola comes from a Muslim background and me Tony from a Greek orthodox background. Being raised in a communist country we really were atheists and lost in our sin. We accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior by faith through the influence of CRU ministry. (Tola in high school and me in college) God has changed our hearts and gave us a desire to serve him to fulfill the great Commission in this generation. We have been sharing the gospel and doing discipleship ministry for 22 years in Albania and God has blessed us with four kids.

From 2021-2023 Tony lead the Athletes in Action ministry in Albania. Doing evangelism and discipleship. Also helping churches to build a sport’s ministry so they can influence the community with the gospel.

In the summer of 2023, our family moved to Raleigh, North Carolina to continue serving the Lord with Athletes in Action, a Cru Ministry.

Brokenness exists in every area of life, including sport. But we believe there is a remedy to the brokenness of the world in the gospel of Jesus. Athletes experience brokenness both personally and as part of sport-culture. They also have unmatched influence in their communities and around the globe. We want to help athletes experience the hope and purpose that comes from following Jesus, and equipping them to use their platform to be part of God’s mission in the world to make disciples of all nations.

These are students' leaders in different sports. “ 2 Timothy 2:2” And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.

We know that we can't do this alone.

Your partnership is vital and we would like to invite you to prayerfully consider making an investment in furthering the advancement of the Gospel by joining our outreach as a ministry partner.

"We would be honored if you would consider meeting up with us to hear about what the Lord is doing through our ministry at UNC Chapel Hill and NC State, and how you can be a part of this ministry as a financial and prayer partner!"

"For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent?" - Romans 10:13-15, ESV
