About Us

FIT Church USA is a faith-based fitness nonprofit empowering churches worldwide to fight chronic illness through biblical fitness.

It Started in 2015...

The name was Freedom Fitness Elite, and the church was Freedom Fellowship in Virginia Beach, VA. Founder Matthew Gay wanted to apply his knowledge and passion for fitness at his church.

So he asked his pastor if he could start a free workout and devotional on Saturday mornings, and the rest is history. The ministry grew and brought people who weren't going to his church from all over.
