Jesse Flaherty grew up in Oceanport, New Jersey, with two FCA staff parents and four older siblings. He played football at Wagner College in Staten Island, NY, and began working full-time for Greater Fairfax North FCA in the fall of 2019. He served as an Area Representative for about two years until he accepted the Area Director position in 2021. Jesse lives in Herndon, Virginia, with his wife Samantha, who is a 4th grade teacher.

Jesse is passionate about the gospel of Jesus Christ and his desire is to see Jesus transform the hearts and minds of athletes and coaches. As someone who grew up in an FCA family, Jesse has seen and felt the incredible impact of this ministry. God has specifically used FCA to transform his heart, deepen his faith, and give him a platform to lead others into a relationship with Jesus.

His prayer is that coaches and athletes in the Greater Fairfax North area will use their influence in their community to glorify God and make disciples.

Born and raised in Metro Detroit, Michigan, Trey Nundley comes from a household of six kids and has been involved with organized sports since the age of seven. While in high school Trey participated in three sports: football, basketball, and baseball. It wasn’t until three years after graduating high school that he came to faith in Jesus, through some friendships that were maintained with a couple of old high school football teammates. Since then, he has served as a church small group leader, served on the worship team, and has even served as a Police Officer in the city of Detroit. It wasn’t until the early summer of 2020, that Trey was led to the DMV, where he ultimately ended up leaving his law enforcement profession in Michigan, to pursue a career in full-time ministry. This led to Trey being introduced to FCA, where he is currently serving with the Greater Fairfax North, Virginia team.

Trey has a passion to help young people discover the freedom, purpose, and peace that come from a relationship with Jesus! Through God’s calling and provision, Trey has the privilege of being able to reach young people for the kingdom of God by serving athletes and coaches in Greater Fairfax North.
