Friends at FBCP,
Here are the updates and announcements you need for the week.
This Sunday
As of last Sunday all our COVID-19 restrictions have been removed. We recommend always having a mask with you even if you don’t choose to wear one as you may find yourself in need of one as we continue to be mindful of each other in worship. Please remember that we each are navigating different contexts and have varying comfort levels as we continue to build a community of generosity, curiosity, and love. Read the entire update on our practices and plans for worshiping together here.
Join us for worship in the sanctuary at 10:30 am for a special board led service! 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.
The Friends In Deed Food Pantry item for this Sunday is soup.
