"The smallest things could change lives."
This is Eunice's encouragement after helping to host the Bible club's first ever gospel outreach at Kennedy High School.
The Christian club at Kennedy is tenacious. After running into set-back after set-back to their rally, they decided to pray. Every morning. The hour before school. Finally, they got the ok from the school administration to hold a rally last week in one of their classrooms.

Dynamic pastor sharing with the group
|
40 students came to the rally, which involved singing, praying, a gospel presentation, Gospel of John booklets and a meal. According to Michael, CSP's Biola Team director, Kennedy's rally was the most worship-oriented he had been to. The pastor even encouraged the students to pray aloud.
You may think that such an overtly Christian rally would be a turn-off for highschoolers, but it wasn't. Two students made first time commitments to Christ and many others rededicated their lives. One of the club leaders immediately connected with the new believers and introduced them to the rest of the club.

The Christian club with their advisor and mentors
|
Just like Eunice said, little things, like the rally they planned, change lives through the power of Almighty God.
The club members were encouraged by the impact of their rally and excited to do it again next year.
Their club advisor echoed their hope: "This is great. I hope they do at least three Christian rallies next year."
