Greetings!
Students in the Christian Club at Fullerton HS shared the gospel with their friends nearly every week of last Fall semester. Last week, they held a lunch-hour rally that featured three student testimonies with free pizza & water for all attending.
Check it out.

Over 250 come to the Rally

The
fourth period bell rang, and students started trickling into the gym and
quickly filled all the available seating. The large room - and all 250 chairs -
was soon overflowing with energetic students; some stood in the back and others
found places on the floor in the front row.
Three student leaders shared their stories, and the crowd that had been rambunctious and rowdy shifted
to a hushed silence when the students spoke into the microphone. Laurel - club president - was
joyful and excited due to the unexpected size of the crowd. Wh en asked about
the exact number, she reported that the 250 slices of pizza were gone within
minutes, and many students did not receive it.
Overall, the team of student leaders
was thrilled with the day, and anxious to follow-up with
students about the impact.
Rachel
Chambers (17) is one of the passionate leaders from Fullerton High
School who bravely spoke in front of her peers this afternoon. Rachel, along with two other students, succinctly shared their testimonies to a
packed out gym.
When asked about how she felt the rally went, Chambers
exclaimed, "Today went so amazing. We packed out chairs - we didn't have enough
chairs. People were standing up in the back. God moved and everyone felt
welcome." She went on to show one way that they know their message of
redemption is having an imp
act on the campus: "The gay-straight alliance from
this school came here today and wanted to make amends with
the Christians, and
we're going to start speaking the gospel to them. God is moving."
