Hey, Friends!
Thanks to those who were able to join our virtual parent discussion last week with Iris Chen. We are so grateful for the parent community at FBCP and the chance to learn with and support each other. If you weren't able to attend but are interested in the conversation, let us know! We plan to host more opportunities like this in the future and would love to connect with you. Thanks for being such a thoughtful community.
An Invitation to Parents During Lent
We are well into the season of Lent, and I am praying for God to keep tilling the soil in our hearts as we get closer to Easter. This is a beautiful time of intentionality, one that can give birth to new ways of being if we make space to pause and reflect. I came across this article with three simple practices for parents during Lent. I hope you find it encouraging if you're feeling the weight of parenting and need space to reconnect with God and other parents. We look forward to the rest of this season with our church family!
March Liturgy for Families with Kids
Mark your calendars for our next time of worship in the park on Saturday, March 20th, at 10:30AM! We will have a fun-filled morning praising God together. You can RSVP using this link to help us prepare enough supplies for everyone.
Women in Science
Rachel Ignotofsky is a New York Times–bestselling author and illustrator. Her book, Women in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers who Changed the World, is a gloriously illustrated celebration of female trailblazers. It highlights the contributions of fifty notable women to the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, with examples from both the ancient and modern worlds. The result is a fun and accessible book that appeals to kids and adults alike. Check out the author's interview with KiwiCo here.
Youth
This week the youth will be in the park at 10:30AM! We are really looking forward to being together safely and can't wait to be with you all. Bring a mask and a water bottle. We hope to see you Sunday morning!
Sending you so much love and virtual hugs!
With gratitude for you,
Pastor Lindsay & Pastor Mary
