*sigh* It's sad where I hear stories of people advertising for say, the school gay club and stuff but when it comes to Christians, it's like "Oh no! That's some sort of taboo thing! Not for school!" -_-; So yeah... I'll be pryaing^^

I would contact someone who knows the legal ramifications of this if you're serious about disliking it. Not allowing a religious group to advertise while allowing any other group to do so is discrimination, and I understand that such things have been cracked down on. I'm not an expert, but I understand that this type of behavior is wrong, while the school is prevented from supporting a religious organization, not allowing its members to advertise like every other club or organization is discrimination. Anyway, I'll be praying.

Personally, I'd avoid buring out on the advertising thing. Go for word of mouth, proven to be adequate to spread God's message for like, a zillion years now.

Praying for your group.

Congratulations on the club! Lifting you up. And let us know how it goes!

And as far as the legal issues... You mentioned it's a VO-Tech. I assume it's still a public school, though, right? They could still risk getting sued if they discriminate.
Theme Scripture: Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1)

And a verse for all us single folks: Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? (1 Corinthians 9:5)
