    JR HIGH EVENTS:

    30 Hr Famine is when the youth and leaders fast for 30 hours and fundraise ahead of time for World Vision for those in deepest poverty. At the event, we play Games to simulate poverty and experiential learning, along with fasting, watching videos, worship and pray together, a service project, and conclude with a final meal together. This is a great event to put our faith into action!

    Fri, Mar 7—Optional Fun Night/Sleepover. We plan to hang out at the Living Hope Community Church gym from 8-10pm. Youth can be picked up at 10pm and sleep at home if you prefer.
    Sat, Mar 8—30 Hour Famine Events—9am-6pm
    To begin your fast: Please eat lunch (whenever that is) and then don’t eat after that until we eat together on Sat evening.
