Update for this week in High School Ministry...

Good morning, parents.

Here's the the quick update about what's been going on and what is going on this week in the life of the high school ministry here at PFB Church.

UPDATES FROM LAST WEEK:

• Last Wednesday night we started a two-week series on the vision of the high school and next generation ministries here at the church.


• On Saturday, a small group from the high school ministry met at the church to make lunches.  They then went to Ganesha park and passed them out to the homeless while also sharing Jesus with them. AWESOME!!!!


• On Sunday morning, we looked at 2 Kings 25:27-30, asking the students if they had settled for comfortable rather than freedom in Christ.  To read about what I spoke on, click here to read my blog from this morning.

INFO FOR THIS WEEK:

• We are spending today, Wednesday and Thursday interviewing candidates for the lead high school and discipleship pastor position.  Please pray for myself and the interview team during this process.  We ONLY want God's choice for this position.


• This Wednesday night we will finish up our series on our vision for the ministry.


• This Saturday, from 12:30 - 4:30, you and your high schooler can serve the homeless right here at PFB Church at the monthly homeless feast.  For more information, please call the church and speak with Nancy (909-629-5277, ext. 3014).

FOR THE FUTURE:

• On Wednesday night and Sunday morning, we announced the upcoming Ignite Worship Event.  We had it last year and it was EXPLOSIVE!!! Everyone is welcome to be part of this event.  Cost is free!!! Click here to read all about it.

There you go.  I hope that this is helpful to you.

And thank you again for allowing us to partner with you as you raise your teenagers to love Jesus.

Some Upcoming Events

Hey parents,

I just wanted to point you toward some info  of events that are coming up in the near future.  Click HERE to read all about them on the InsideOut website.  Here is a summary list of the upcoming events:

• September 8th; 7pm - "The Calling" - A Night of Worship


• September 18th; 12:00-3:00pm - "Pathway: Lunch at the Park" (evangelism)


• September 22nd; 7:00am - See You At the Pole (based on involvement of students from each school).  Check out the See You At The Pole Website by clicking here.


• September 25th; 12:30-4:30pm - Feed the Homeless, PFB Gymnasium

We also have a new girls small group forming on Monday nights.  It is lead by Nurse Terry [909-263-2545] and Pam Carney [562-618-2596].  The address of this small group is 1679 Woodbend Drive, Claremont, CA. 91711.  It would help us out a lot if you would RSVP with either Pam or Nurse Terry as soon as you can.  We are convinced that the key to spiritual growth is being involved in a small group.  If Monday nights do not work for you or your high school girl, please contact us at the church and let us know when might work best and we will try our best to accommodate.

Thank you again for allowing us to partner with you as you raise your teenagers to love Jesus.

What a ride,

BASS LAKE IS COMING!!!!

That's right. It's right around the corner.  Registration for Bass Lake is due next Sunday, June 13th.  You should have received a registration form in the mail.  If not, please contact the church (909-629-5277, ext. 3038 and speak with Marguerite) or click here to download one.  This is a the big trip of the summer that high schoolers always talk about it.

DATES: July 7-11

COST: $250.00

Just Giving You A Heads Up...

I wanted to let you know that tonight at Wednesdays at PFB we will be looking at Song of Solomon 4.  This is a very graphic passage of Scripture as we take a look at the young married couple in their honeymoon suite.  I'm convinced that this is necessary for us to look at as a ministry so that this next generation has a biblical view and understanding of a sexual relationship between a husband and wife.

I would appreciate your prayers for tonight as we dive into this topic.

High School Event: ICE SOCCER

That's right: you read it correctly.  ICE SOCCER. We keep our tennis shoes on.  We go the Ontario Ice Arena (1225 W. Holt Blvd, Ontario) and play soccer on the ice.  It's a blast.  Here's the quick info for this event:

COST: $10.00 (free for first time guests that are brought)

TIME: 10:00 - 11:115pm

MEDICAL RELEASE FORM IS REQUIRED TO BE PART OF THIS EVENT!!! You can download a medical release form to fill out and bring with you when you drop off you high schooler by clicking here.

If you have any questions, please contact Ashley at 909-938-4737  or email her at ashley@insideoutnow.tv and she will be able to help you out.

This is an incredible opportunity for your high schooler(s) to invite a friend who doesn't go to church to get to know some amazing high schoolers who do.

Thanks for allowing us to partner with you as you strive to raise your kids to love and follow Jesus.

Opportunities this next week (May 2-8)

I just wanted to give you a heads up on some opportunities for your student(s) to get involved in with the high school ministry at PFB this week.  Here goes:

• POMONA BEAUTIFICATON DAY. We want to be a ministry that is about making a difference in the community that God has put us in.  With that, a number of our high schoolers will be helping clean up a yard of an elderly woman in Pomona on Saturday morning.


• SUNDAY MORNING. Please encourage your high schooler to join us on Sunday mornings at 9:45 in the B-Building.  This is our time to be in community — just a bunch of high schoolers being high schoolers and worshipping Jesus together.


• WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT PFB. This Wednesday night at 7:00pm we will be finishing up our current series called, "REVELATE."  It's going to be an explosive finish.  Again, please feel free to join us for worship.  If you can't make it to the church, then watch the service live online at www.pfblive.tv.


• DANCING WITH FRIENDS. This is happening this Friday, May 7th.  This is one of the coolest ministry opportunities that we have.  We go and help put on a dance for some developmentally disabled adults in our community.  That's right.  We go and help with the food, take pictures, hang with the people and DANCE WITH THEM! It's an absolute blast.  If you've never heard about this, then shame on your high schooler. :)  If you would like to go and see for yourself, or want more information on this for your high schooler, please call Ashley at (909) 938-4737.  She is the one who heads up this ministry.

As I close, I want to encourage you to encourage your student to get involved in a LifeGroup.  We are in the process of organizing these LifeGroups (small groups) and getting them meeting.  These LifeGroups are so important for students to be involved in.  If you want more information about them, or want to sign your high school student up for one, please contact me at brian@pfblive.tv or call me at 909-629-5277, ext. 3044.

Also, please pass on this blog to any high school parents.  This blog will be the main mode of communication between us so that you are kept aware of things that are coming up or to hear about how things have been going.

Hang in there as you continue to strive to raise teenagers who love Jesus.  Listen closely: you just might hear the applause of heaven.
