Friends at FBCP,
Here are the updates and announcements you need for the week.
This Sunday
The Rose Bowl Half Marathon will be taking place Sunday morning with limited street access around the church from 6 am - 1 pm. Be sure to check out the road closure map so you can plan your route and give yourself extra time to get to service.
Join us for worship in the sanctuary at 10:30 am! 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 stay for our regular youth gathering and lunch. As a reminder, here are our community guidelines for being together in the sanctuary.
As we exercise best practices amid learning how to live with COVID, we recommend upgrading your masks if you’re able from cloth ones to those proven to be more effective in protecting against the virus. Upgrades in masking options include double masking a cloth mask with a 3-ply medical/surgical mask or switching to N95, KN95, or KF94 masks. This will help us to continue to develop sustainable practices as learn how to thrive together as a community.
Sign up to join our new series of Sunday School classes starting this Sunday from 9-10 am. We’ll have two different classes you can choose from, and childcare will be available so parents can attend. Please note that class choices have been adjusted for this Winter 2022 session with some of the classes being moved to Sunday school for Spring 2022. To find out more information about the Winter classes being offered and/or to sign up, click here.
This Sunday we are asking you to bring can openers and/or a non-perishable food item of your choice for the Friends In Deed Food Pantry as you are able. Right now this will help meet a major need in their supply. Thanks for contributing!
Future Happenings & Other News
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.
Do you love to sing? Come join the FBCP choir, no experience required! Our wonderful choir just started back up and we’d love to have you be a part of it. We meet Wednesday nights at 7 pm in the fellowship hall. Email Pastor Leslie for more information.
The memorial service for long-time and beloved FBCP member Tom Harris Sr., will be next Saturday, January 22nd, at 11 am in the sanctuary with the reception to follow in the gym. Tom’s legacy, both spiritual and financial, continues to have an indelible and direct impact on FBCP that will be felt well into the future. His faithful generosity is one of the reasons we have been able to minister with abundance. All are welcome as we gather to remember, honor, and celebrate Tom Harris Sr.’s life and legacy.
Grace and peace to you as we head into this MLK weekend. We can’t wait to worship with you in our sanctuary on Sunday!
Less without you,
The FBCP Community
