JUMPSTART UPDATE
As of Thursday, 93 students are officially registered for JumpStart 🤯 🎉
Tuesday morning was full of laughter, bacon, and a whole lot of energy. It was SO good to see new faces and old friends in a very full room.
But a full Longstreet isn’t the goal.
Every Tuesday students share where they’ve seen God show up in their lives and share that hope with their peers. Together we leave Longstreet reminded that the God we meet in Scripture is showing up in ordinary places, like practice fields, kitchen tables, school hallways, and even breakfast before the first bell rings.
93 students is worth celebrating.
But what God is doing around those tables?
That’s the real story. That’s what’s truly worth celebrating.
I’m grateful to witness it.
What a way to start the school year.
May God be glorified in it and through it.

Thank you Tim Bunch and his amazing Longstreet staff for going above and beyond to create a space for students to encounter the hope of the gospel every single week.
And thank you to our drivers who help transport these students to local area schools every single week! Wowza!!
