Hi Everyone,This past Friday, C3 held a field day after school for Jordan High students. Our team of 12 adults and 6 students spent many hours putting up posters, planning the field day events, and putting together all of the supplies. We optimistically prepared for 20 - 60 students, hoped for at least 40 and prayed for as many as God would bring. To our joy and surprise, 150 students descended upon the field ready to compete in the egg toss, tug of war, dizzy bat, and other classic field day events. We were shocked and excited that 10% of the student population showed up considering we've averaged 7 students at our weekly meetings.
After the students registered, competed, and ate hot dogs and pizza, I had the pleasure of telling them about who Jesus is via the loud speaker system we set up. It was such an exciting opportunity to be able to share the Gospel. We will be doing follow-up with the students who registered for the event. I thank you guys for your support and prayers. Lives are changing because we are partnering in His name. Click here to see a short video of the event.
Also, the C3 banquet is less than a month away. On Friday, May 21, 2010, 6:00pm, you are invited to the 3rd Annual C3 Banquet and fundraiser. This is your chance to see the students, hear the stories of changed lives, eat gourmet food, and continue to partner with what God is doing on the high school campuses. Please RSVP by May 10th, c3@gracelife.com.
Thanks for all of your support and prayers,
Adam, Elizabeth, Jilas, Aidan, and Jeremiah Dawson
