Friends at FBCP,
Happy Friday! Here are all the updates and announcements for this week.
This Sunday we will be gathering in the garage at 10:30AM for worship, and we can’t wait to be together! Come early to say hi to friends and settle in. We know that it’s been a hot week, so we’ll have water stations where you can fill up your water bottles. We’ll also be singing a new song, and you can listen to it here in preparation for worship.
Kids and Youth: This Saturday (tomorrow!) we have another Liturgy for Families with Kids at 10:30am in the park! It’s not too late to RSVP if you plan to come. Our nursery is now open on Sundays for kids under four years old. Parents can enter off Union Street through the park, and we’ll be there to help guide you to the nursery rooms. For more info on kids and youth, check out this weekly communication that Pastor Lindsay sent out to families yesterday.
This week we are asking you to bring cereal for the Friends In Deed Food Pantry if you are able. Right now this will help meet a major need in their supply. Thanks for contributing!
Choir has resumed! If you want to join the fun and the singing, the last choir practice this month is in the church park at 7pm on June 30. We’d love to see you there! You can email Pastor Leslie for more info.
Join us on Thursday for our Bible study at noon in the park. We’ll be there every week for a time of discussion and fellowship as we look at scripture together. Our first focus is on the book of Galatians. There are no materials to download, but you are encouraged to bring a Bible (or we can loan you one!). Feel free to bring your lunch to eat, too. Hope to see you there! Email Pastor Chip with any questions.
Please keep Ian Tan and his family in your prayers this week. On Sunday, June 13, Ian’s dad went to the ER with a tear in his aorta, and he was immediately taken in for surgery. Unfortunately, he suffered catastrophic and irrecoverable brain damage, and he passed peacefully at 5:54 pm CDT on Thursday, June 17. A service is being held on Saturday at 1pm PST with an option to join over livestream. For more information about the service and to send flowers or words of love, please see this page.
On Sunday, July 4, we will have a worship service in the park with lunch right after. We hope you’ll join us on this first Sunday of the month as we share both communion and a full meal together. It’s also a service we hope that families with kids will feel encouraged to attend, and we promise more fun songs with hand motions that our kids know well!
Grace and peace to you as we head into the weekend. We can’t wait to worship with you on Sunday!
Less without you,
