Fayetteville High School


     God has moved in incredible ways this year in Fayetteville High School.  From leaders to kids, God has blessed this team and is continuing to do so as we ask Him to lead us in His ministry. As one of the leaders, I think I can speak for all of us and say I have been continually blessed with meeting as a team and getting to come together on a weekly basis. This week we potlucked at one of the leader’s house and we laughed and ate and planned club for the following week. It’s amazing to be a part of that kind of community. After all the festivities, we got down to business and prayed for the next week and for kids we have been pursuing.

     Our team has an interesting dynamic with more than half of the leaders out of college and working full-time.  This is making our team go through some growing pains and getting to see what works and what doesn’t. God has been blessing us with opportunities to hang out with high schoolers if we only ask Him for them. This year has been different in many ways, but seeing club grow and the provision of a club room, we know God is leading this and that if we keep praying, showing up and doing our part, God will impact these kids more than we ever could.

     The last few clubs have been amazing!  Ranging anywhere between 60-80 high schoolers a week, we have had banana club, Hunger Games club, Halloween Extravaganza, and this week we will be rolling out the sticky grey tape we all love for our 1st Duct Tape club! We’ve been progressing through the gospel and this past week one of our leaders, Zack, gave the sin talk. He wiped mud all over his shirt to symbolize the sin that everyone is born with and that no matter what we do, we are helpless and haters of God with this condition called sin. It was a very powerful illustration. But it doesn’t stop there, Carlyle has some good news for us this week!
