Here is a quick recap of our last FCA Huddle. Once again, the turnout was incredible, the bleachers were packed. I love that each week the number of kids is growing. We are now purchasing 30 pizzas!!
Our speaker this week was Jenn Zuelner. Jenn has a powerful testimony, she shared about when she was burned with acid all over her face and neck and arms.
I asked Valerie Kan, one of our senior FCA student leaders to write as short description of Jenn message. Here it is:
“Today's huddle gave me such big goose bumps! Jenn, a third-degree burn survivor, told us the story of how she got her burns and how much she's grown with God ever since. She was the first female speaker we've had at a huddle this year, but she did an amazing job. It was so awesome to hear how God worked with her through all of the surgeries and procedures she had to endure for 3 years after her accident. When she asked the students about our lives right now, and what we were willing to lay down at God's feet, I feel like she was speaking specifically to me. I am starting to visit some of the colleges that I've been accepted to, and Jenn's story influenced me to whole-heartedly leave the decision for where I should attend college in His hands. Whatever plans He has for me is way bigger and better than whatever else I had planned, and I know that I can trust in His decisions. Jenn's story helped to encourage students to believe and have faith in God even in the darkest of times, and to know that only He is the way, the truth, and the light.”
As you can see by Valarie’s recap, Jenn’s message really inspired the kids and gave them lots of encouragement.
Our Huddles of course could not happen with out the support of our wonderful parents:
Our Pizza sponsors for this huddle were the Torrey, Garmon and Page families. Their donations helped us provide plenty of pizza for all who attended.
Baked Goods were lovingly provided by the Kenney family.
Water bottles were provided by the Johnson and Lockwood families.
Our amazing sound system is provided by the Alayra family.
Thank you, also to the 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!!)
THANK YOU PARENTS for your support!!! Attached are some fun pictures from the day!
Our next Huddle is Thursday, February 23rd!!!
Blessings.......
