30 Hour Famine 2010

The CPC Youth were joined by the Youth of Heartland Community Church for the 30 Hour Famine. This event, which benefits the Christian relief agency World Vision, raises awareness of and support for hungry children around the world. The youth went without solid food for 30 straight hours. During those hours they did various activities that taught them about the challenges faced by poor communities. This year the focus was on Ethiopia, where 1 out of every 2 kids do not get enough to eat. The youth also put together some "Hygiene Kits" for earthquake relief in Haiti. Through their efforts the CPC Youth raised $3810 to help fight hunger!

Super Bowl Party 2010

The Beardmore's once again demonstrated their fabulous hospitality by hosting the CPC Youth (and parents) for our Super Bowl Party. The Saints fan ended the night by celebrating, as did Eric and David Beardmore--the first and second-place finishers in the ping-pong tourney.
