30 HOUR FAMINE Information
So here’s the low-down on the FAMINE Friday Feb. 29 - Sat. March 1st, 2008:
~ Orange is the color of World Vision who heads up the 30 HOUR FAMINE. So, either wear orange to school on Friday or make a handmade Tee that somehow represents the FAMINE! We WANT people to ask questions!
~ The FAMINE starts with YOU at school on Friday! Starting at 1:00 we will no longer eat any solid food. Only consume liquids! Water and fruit juices are best. It is in your best interest to avoid soda and energy drinks. The caffeine and carbonation will wreck you… seriously! Caffeine is a diuretic and will rob you of fluids… that’s no good when you’re counting on fluids for thirty hours. Let me say it again… AVOID SODA & ENERGY DRINKS! Also, avoid orange juice as it is very acidic and won’t sit well in your stomach.
~ Show up to the DOCKS Friday night between 5:30 – 6:30 PM. Registration will run for an hour and you will need to bring all the money you raised in the envelope that I handed you! Our Kick-Off service will begin @ 7:30 and feature Pastor Aaron as our guest speaker!
~ BRING: FAMINE funds that you raised / Bible & Pen / Sleeping Bag & Pillow / Typical overnight stuff (we have showers… but I’m gonna grub it) / Change of clothes / TENNIS SHOES / Warm Coat, Hat, Gloves for the Community Service project / WATER BOTTLE
Our last activity will be a meal to break-the-fast. Plan on being picked up around 7:00 PM Saturday.
Please focus on the words written by the Apostle Paul in Philippians 4:11-13 ~ 11 Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. 12 I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. 13 For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.
I’m excited to see what God can do when we empty ourselves and allow Him to refill us!
