30 hr famine info!

If you haven't turned in forms today (link to release form), please email Jen (jeaston @ harborcovenant . org) to let him know your planning on coming!

Who: Harbor Covenant, Believer’s Fellowship, Chapel Hill and Lighthouse Christian School

What: 30 Hour Famine

Where: Lighthouse Christian (Sat. community service off campus)

When: Fast starts after lunch on Friday
Friday check-in from 5:30pm pick-up @10pm
Saturday drop off @9am (bring work clothes!)
6pm breaking fast together (family welcome to join!)

Why: A voluntary fast to raise money and awareness for world hunger.

How: Together.

World Vision's 30 Hour Famine is a worldwide movement of students who are serious about serving God and fighting hunger - all on an empty stomach.  For 30 hours, participants get a taste of hunger by not eating - something more than a billion people around the world experience every day . Some groups and individuals are raising money for World Vision for each hour they’re fasting and others are bringing donations and canned food for FISH.
This will be a “Juice Fast.” We encourage students to drink juices including sports drinks to give them some energy. Remember to try and avoid citrus drinks!
Friday we’ll be playing lots of games and learning about people in all parts of the world.
Saturday we will be doing some community service (helps take your mind off of yourself when your helping others!). We’ll most likely be working at the Northwest Furniture Bank cleaning up the property around their warehouse. Other groups will be at the Tacoma Shelter and around Gig Harbor.
We’ll finish our fast with dinner together at Lighthouse Christian School at 6pm! Families are welcome (let us know so we have enough food).

Please contact Jen Easton if you have any questions!
