~ 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 8:00 AM 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. Skipping lunch on Day 1 will be the easiest!

~ Pastor J. will be at WAHS during all 3 lunch periods starting at 10:45. You will be able to go outside (weather permitting) and join him for prayer and discussion! This has already been approved by the school administration!

~ Show up to the DOCKS Friday night between 4:00-4:30PM. Registration will run for that ½ hour and you will need to bring all the money you raised in the envelope that was handed to you! Make sure the total on the outside matches what is on the inside!

~ BRING: FAMINE funds that you raised / Bible & Pen / Sleeping Bag & Pillow / Typical overnight stuff / Change of clothes / TENNIS SHOES / Weather appropriate outdoor wear / WATER BOTTLE/ ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper….someone will be snoring.

~ Medical Conditions: If you have a medical condition that requires you to eat or if you are diabetic you MUST take personal responsibility for anything needed to get you through the event. I would recommend eating as little as possible to stay healthy and pick boring foods (enjoying your food would discredit the event). South Beach Living makes a good protein based meal replacement bar that can be found in the breakfast aisle of most grocery stores near the Pop-Tarts. Your food will be kept and consumed away from the rest of us. See Pastor J. when you arrive if this applies to you.

Our last activity will be a meal to break-the-fast. Plan on being picked up 2:30 – 3:00 PM Saturday. We will be ending the FAMINE at Pleasant Community Church at 673 Pleasant Dr. in Pleasant Twp. Students need to be picked up there.

~ The last thing you need to bring is an open mind that’s willing to learn and grow. A heart that’s willing to meet Jesus Christ in a way you’ve never seen before. Even if you’ve done the Famine before, we hope that you leave your expectations at home. We may not play your favorite game. We may or may not have your favorite flavor of juice. That’s OK because it’s not about you, it’s about little kids around the world who are going without food all the time… and they don’t know that when 30 hours is up… they get to again!

If you have questions this week please call or e-mail us so we can help!
