Weekly Updates 07.29.2022

This Sunday

  • Because our sanctuary does not have air conditioning, we encourage you to bring a water bottle and dress lightly on Sundays for worship service. Although there are hand fans throughout the sanctuary in the back of the pews, you may also want to bring your own hand fan as the summer heat continues.

  • Our current teaching focus is called HYMN STUDIES. As we are able, we will be making listening tracks to go along with each week. Listen to the tracks we have so far by clicking the button above (these hymn tracks will also be our homepage for a while)!

  • 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 five years old and up can join us for the first part of worship and then will be dismissed to their classrooms with their leaders. They can sit with their parents or join us in the front rows at the start of service. Our youth are invited to join us for worship and for our regular youth gathering and lunch afterward. Prayer team will be available at the front of the sanctuary toward the end of the service to pray with those who would like to receive prayer.

  • The Friends In Deed Food Pantry item for this Sunday is peanut butter and/or jelly/jam.

Future Happenings & Other News

  • We will not have noon Bible study this coming Thursday, August 4th. We will resume the study the following week on Thursday, August 11th.

  • Kids Camp is next week from August 1st-5th from 9 am - 12 pm each day. All kids five years old and up are invited to attend. If your kids have other friends who want to get to know our church community, you are welcome to invite them, too. You can register your camper here.

  • We will be having our Basics Class after worship service on Sunday, August 14th, at 12:30 pm in the Southside room for those who are interested in learning more about our church and/or becoming a member. Pastors John Jay and Chip will go over our history as an American Baptist church and what it means to be part of the FBCP community. Lunch will be provided. Email Pastor Chip for more details.

  • The memorial service for Hank Rave will be Saturday, August 20th, at 11 am in the chapel. There will be light refreshments afterwards in the breezeway and sanctuary lobby. All are welcome as we remember Hank who was a beloved part of our FBCP family for many years. At the family’s request, any financial gifts given in lieu of flowers can be directed to FBCP’s Deacons Fund.

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,

The FBCP Community
