Good Morning FCA Families!!
Parents, to our amazement our first IHS Huddle of the year was a huge success with over 140 students in attendance!! Luckily we had extra pizza and everyone had a great time.
Your continued generosity will make it possible for us to be continue to provide the students with hot pizza, homemade treats and a drink... all while hearing an inspirational message.
Our guest speaker was Barry Martinez as he typically is our kick-off speaker for the new school year. Barry spoke of his experience as the starting quarterback in high school, to being demoted one week later to third string quarterback due to a poor performance. He shared about the dejection and humiliation he felt and how he wrestled with feelings of not wanting to return to school due to the embarrassment of being benched. He shared how his faith in Jesus helped him gain his confidence back and told the students that Jesus is looking to heal their hurts if they are feeling like they don’t measure up or if they have made bad choices. It was very inspiring!
A big thank you to Dave Ballinger, my dad, for paying for all the pizza. When he heard about the club and its impact at Irvine High, he wanted to help. Thanks Dad!!
Baked Goods were lovingly prepared by the these families:
Alayra
Kenney
Water bottles were provided by the Garmon family
Our amazing sound system is provided by the Alayra family.
Thank you, also to the dads and moms who rolled up their sleeves during their lunch break to help serve water and pizza. We are so grateful for your help as this ministry continues to expand.
As you can see this club is growing and will only stay afloat with all of our help! If you are able, in these tough times, to donate financially, please send a check made to IHS Athletic Boosters-FCA to: Jodi Nordstrom, 9 Redrock, Irvine, Ca. 92604. (Your donations are tax deductible!!)
If you are able to donate waters or baked good on the day of the Huddle, please email me. You can either drop them off at the school gym the day of the huddle or beforehand at my house. If you are able to help serve these hungry students, please show up at the gym at 11:30 on the day of the Huddle. And most of all, we ask that everyone please pray for this ministry as kids continue to come with a curiosity and a hunger for meaningful inspiration!
THANK YOU PARENTS for your support!!! Attached are some fun pictures from the day!
Our next Huddle is Thursday, October 28th!!!
Blessings.......
