Parents & students- It’s been a few months since November’s “Backpacking Elk Meadows- High School Guys” post.  An E.P.I.C. student ministry BlogSpot update is WAY overdue!


Family time, WPC Homecoming weekend, prep for my sermon/lessons, and speaking twice at Faith Bible School this week have all kept me fairly busy.  While I don’t currently have time to compose a thoughtful, inspirational post about our student ministry at Aloha Church of God, be assured that God is doing great things!

To tide us all over until our next ministry update proper, here are some photos from a few of our Fall 2012 youth events:
