Weekly Updates 09.24.2021

Friends at FBCP,

Here are the updates and announcements you need for the week.

  • Join us this Sunday for worship in the sanctuary at 10:30AM. Come early to hang out with folks in the lobby and prepare for worship. The nursery will be open as usual for our toddlers and babies. Our kids four years old and up can join us in the park, and youth are invited to join us for worship and then will gather afterwards in the lobby. As a reminder, here are our community guidelines for being together in the sanctuary.

  • The Rose Bowl Half Marathon is Sunday morning with limited street access around the church from 6AM- 12:30PM. Be sure to check out the road closure map so you can plan your route and give yourself extra time you might need for getting to service.

  • We’ll begin our service with an open time of sharing gratitudes, so we invite you to consider this prompt as we head into Sunday: When has Jesus been faithful to bring healing or help when you felt powerless?

  • You can also prepare for worship by listening to this week’s scripture recording. The passage is Matthew 4:12-25, and you’ll hear a combination of sounds and scripture in this week’s meditation.

  • This week we are asking you to bring a baking item (e.g., flour, sugar, oil, etc.) 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!

  • You’re invited to our Thursday noon Bible study! Join us each week on campus for a lively discussion about the upcoming Sunday teaching text. Email Pastor Chip for more details.

  • On Sunday, October 3rd, we are launching a new Sunday School hour for all ages—that means adults, too! We are excited to have four different classes you can choose from based on your interests, and each class will meet at 9:00AM on Sunday mornings before worship. Childcare will be provided so parents can opt in, too. To learn more about our class offerings and sign up, please use this form.

Grace and peace to you as we head into the weekend. We can’t wait to worship with you in our sanctuary on Sunday!

Less without you,
