Here is a quick recap from our last huddle on Thursday, March 17th. Once again, We had a great turnout, in spite of it being an extended lunch. I have attached a few pictures, check them out!! Also, check out our face book page = “IHS Fellowship of Christian Athletes”.
Our speaker this week was Greg Seneca (youth pastor from The River Church)...Here is a quick recap from Jared Hall....
"Last Thursday we had Pastor Greg from the "River" Church come out and share his very powerful testimony with the students. Greg grew up going to Church but explained that he didn't have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. His passion was music and began playing drums at the age of 5, and his number one goal was to be a rock-star. Well that dream became reality as his band made it big, but with a secular career comes temptation from the devil. Greg began to use drugs at a very young age and the party scene was a part of his youth. His lead singer asked Greg the question "What is the meaning of life?" Greg answered, "To make it big as a band and party hard." A month later, the lead singer died from a freak accident of a spider bite. This accident along with many other trials changed Greg's life forever. He gave his life to Christ at the age of 30 and has been in ministry ever since. Greg's testimony is a reminder to us all that ANYONE can be used by Jesus. The lonely kid on the verge of suicide at the high school can be changed by the Holy Spirit and used by Jesus. Thank you Greg for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come and share the truth!"
We had several youth pastors join us on Thursday, Steven Johnson from Good Sheppard and Doug Brown, who was accompanied by two of his fellow youth pastors, came from Calvary church in Santa Ana. Please don’t forget to extend an invite to your youth pastor come to our huddles.
