Marty Dittmar

Collegiate Representative | Purdue University 

After serving as missionaries in Italy, Marty and his wife, Brenda, saw God open a new ministry field for them to pursue: Purdue University. Marty officially came on staff with FCA in 2011, though he served as the athletic department’s chaplain since 1997. God is doing special work in West Lafayette as Marty intentionally invests in the spiritual growth of Purdue coaches and athletes. God is doing great things!  BoilerUP!

Joshua McKenzie    Joshua and his wife, Lauren, joined our Purdue FCA team in January 2025.  The Lord is using this couple in fantastic ways to bring the Word into the lives of Boilermaker Student athletes.  Pray for them as they grow and establish their lives here at Purdue.  Pray, too, as they continue to trust God and raise support.
