Welcome!!!

Hi everyone!

Welcome to EFC East Valley's HS blog. We are glad that you have found our site. We will try to update this as much as possible to update you on the happenings of our HS fellowship. Anyway, here is our mission statement for our group:

EV High School Fellowship exists to build a strong community of believers who are growing in their faith through the teaching of Scripture to equip and train them to reach out to their friends and community around them who do not yet have a relationship with Jesus and glorify God in all that they are.

Our key verse comes from Matthew 22:36-40: "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law? "Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hand on these two commandments."

We hope that you will continue to drop by our blog and come join us on Fridays and Sundays!

dude

whaddup guys!
it's your high school core here, with your weekly digest of church activities :D  hope everyone's having a swell week so far!  don't worry guys, the random heatwave will soon be suppressed and chilly weather should be taking its place by the time the weekend hits. i suppose whether that's good news or bad news is up to you..  
so without further ado, here's what's going down for the next couple of weeks!

1. pta night 
parent teacher association night!  didn't know we had a pta but okay.  please please please try to invite your mommies, daddies, uncos, aunties, grandmas, grandpas, cousins, unicorns, nieces, nephews, exboyfriends, or whatever you consider "family"!  this event is to demonstrate just exactly who/what we are as a fellowship so it'll be awesome and encouraging to see a lot of people show up :)
here's the schedule for the night..
7:15-7:45pm Dinner and clean-up (fellowship hall) 
7:45-8:15pm Worship (sanctuary)
8:15-8:55pm Presentation (sanctuary)
9:00-9:25pm Room Visitations/Light snacks (classrooms above the fellowship hall)
2. sunday school
we will be having another bible lesson taught to us by the brian-sky team this sunday so try to come!

3. hallelujah night
our annual hallelujah night will be held on the 31st of october!  there will be food!  there will be games!  there will be prizes!  there will be candy!  and none of it is for you!  HAHA psych!  that's all for the kids, you dummies!  well, you can still have some if you come but as high schoolers, our job is to help run the event by decorationating, setting up game booths, eating food, etc. and making sure the kids have as much fun as possible :D  decoration night is the friday immediately preceding the event [the 26th]

4. winter retreat
the early registration deadline is oct. 28th [in two sundays].  that's the last day for the prices go up!!  did i mention that it's FREEEE?! :D  yes, sign up today and you'll get to go to winter retreat, 100% free of charge.  just make sure you're no older than 3 years of age, haha.

5. bible study
if would like to join some midweek bible study fellowshippin' madness, contact justin or derek and we shall HOOK YOU UPP

6. lunch out
there may or may not be a high school lunch date coming up in a couple of weeks.  we really don't know.

if you have any prayer requests or praises that you would like to share or you just need a friend to talk to, we are always here for you :)  in a nonstalker-like way.  we promise.
kthxbai.

LOVE,
hs core
