Pictures from the Trunk-r-Treat

Wednesday night we had our annual Trunk-r-Treat at church. We had an unbelievable turnout. We gave out close to 200 bags of candy and we ran completely out of hotdogs! Freedom 7 set up two inflatables inside the student center for the students who came out. I think that everyone had a great time and went home with a sugar rush. :)

Look! Jason dressed up as a pumpkin.
Natasha and Chris are on youth staff. Here they are with two of their kids.

Here are pictures of a few of our students.

The prettiest trunk of all.

Mallory is also part of our youth staff.

Pastor Wayne and Sister Ginger :(

As many of you already know, Pastor Wayne and Sister Ginger have resigned as the youth pastors at the Fyffe Church of God. They are following God's leading to Greer, South Carolina to continue in youth ministry at Praise Cathredral Church of God. To say that we will miss them is a tremendous understatement. They have served here for six years and are loved not only by our church and students, but also by the community. On Wednesday night, Pastor Wayne tearfully announced that they were moving. He also left all of you with a message to continue to seek after God with as much passion as you have been, even more in fact. Sister G exhorted everyone to cling to God and to depend on Him. There is no doubt that this was a very hard decision for them, but I know them well enough to know that they are a man and woman of God who have sought God diligently. There is no doubt they are following God's direction. So, to the students of Greer, South Carolina, you are getting the best youth pastors in the world. Lucky! Pastor Wayne and Sister Ginger, Tyler and Gracyn, we love you and are going to miss you.

My apologies

I am so sorry that it has been so long since I have posted anything on the blog. We have had a lot of exciting things going on here at Freedom 7. First of all, our fall program, Collide: A Collision Course with Destiny, is going very well. We are seeing students make commitments to Christ and grow and mature in their relationship with God. Also, our new Sunday School program is awesome. I hope that all of you are enjoying our new schedule of having Sunday School at night. I know I am! Our attendance is increasing, which means that more souls are being reach with the gospel. Another exciting announcement is that we have new Children's Pastors, Jeremy and Teresa Johnson.

Well, that's all for now. I promise not to keep you waiting three weeks for another post. :)
