announcements:

also, there's a hikoi snapchat! add us: fcbchikoi to stay updated and for super spontaneous mid-week encouragements!
recap:
january 22:
charmaine started off the night with a brief talk about being justified by faith. then, allison and katie each shared their testimonies about an instance in which they chose to pursue God and to let Him work in their lives how He saw fit. the large group time concluded with a game led by Nikki. in the game, each sg sent a blindfolded representative into an area filled with balls. the blindfolded person then listened to instructions given by the sg to try to dodge balls and simultaneously throw them at the other representatives. the night closed with sg time.
january 29:
this past friday began with worship led by tracey. following that, we had stations that focused on reflection. in one of the stations, we were reminded of love and made commitments in how we can make our love for others more evident. in another station, we wrote letters of encouragement for people in our lives. the next station was a prayer station, where we prayed about our own relationship with God and asking for Him to help us have more faith in Him. the last station was a chance for us to reflect on the lyrics of two songs (you make me brave by bethel and choose to love by francesca battistelli) and write down the things in the song that stood out to us. to end the night, we split into our sg's.

Nathan began the night with a devotional recap of all that we had covered this past year. He quizzed the body about the theme (On Fire) and the different topics we had covered (the Gospel and Celebration). Maxton then led a time of prayer where we shared with others in our small groups about the spiritual goals we had set for the new year. Sam then led a game which involved each SG to come up with 10 second Snapstories on the topics we had covered during the year as well as a video describing each small group. Points were rewarded for the based on presentation, fluidity, and likability. Check it out on the snapchat! (@fcbchikoi). Cheyenne then celebrated January birthdays and we closed the night with small groups.
1/8
ReWiRe!! The night started off with Naomi leading community time where SGs were grouped together - Bryan&Bradley, Kristy&Sam, Gloria&Nikki - and competed against one another to see who could come up with the most songs containing a given word. Hannah then led a WiRe-esque worship time where we sang camp favorites such as "We are the family of God." An open mic for WiRe testimonies occurred where the body was encouraged to share the blessings and highs of camp. Praise God for all that He has shown us :) The night ended in cabin times where we split into our respective grades.
12/18
Various stations were set up to prepare ourselves for WiRe and to reflect on the past year. We were split into small groups in which we prayed, set goals for WiRe, and meditated on different passages. The night closed with small groups!
12/11
We began HiKoi with a membership interview of Matt and his journey on becoming a HiKoi member. Charmaine then spoke about celebrating our faith during the holiday season and how we can be On Fire by sharing about the gospel to unsaved relatives while on break. We then transitioned to a time of worship led by Charmaine, Hannah, and Maxton. Large group closed off with community time led by Naomi, which involved strapping eggs to people's heads and attempting to break them with a pool noodle.
12/4
Bradley started off the night by answering an interview style testimony on why he became a member of HiKoi and how the fellowship had shaped him. Nathan then led a game of Viking where we all got to scream and get an arm workout by rowing boats. December birthdays were celebrated, and before long, it was small group time.
11/20
The night began in small groups where we had mini-Thanksgivings and stuffed ourselves with delicious food. We then split into grades and played Jeopardy! led by Bradley's small group; however, the game had a twist - each answer was in the form of emojis. The junior class triumphed with their knowledge in decoding messages. We are definitely thankful for the community we have at HiKoi.
We celebrated our faith by creating murals within our SG, displaying reasons why we believe in what we believe and how God has shaped our lives. HiKoi was challenged to give back to others during the holiday season by participating in Operation Gobbler - the canned food drive - and Operation Christmas Child.
SMALL GROUP CUP
Similar to the House Cup in Harry Potter, SGs are battling it out to earn the most amount of points for their SG while being On Fire with their faith. Points are awarded for being on time to HiKoi, winning large group games, and though various HiKoi challenges.
The SG that wins the most amount of points by the end of the year will receive KBBQ

Nintendo characters swept HiKoi from Tetris blocks to the Super Mario Bros. crew. Points were awarded to everyone to participated. Small groups were able to experience what it was like to be a video game character through different games stations held by officers. Nathan led a devotion before we headed off into small groups.
