“I am sorry, I know this isn’t Lifewise, but; I am not comfortable with this. Today was FCA at my daughter’s school. At the end of their meeting, they had kids take handfuls of the attached and pass them out to kids. A girl gave this to my daughter and told her “You need to come and find Jesus.” Notice they use the school emblem on the flyer, too. My daughter went to throw it away and was verbally attacked by a couple of kids that she wasn’t allowed to toss it.
The same school had prescribed prayer during a mandatory assembly. I emailed the Superintendent who blew me off, so I know I would be ignored with concerns about this”
