Spice up your night with a Fiesta! On Wednesday, April 23 at 6 PM, our own Eric England will be serving up delicious burrito bowls and loaded nachos, piled high with mouthwatering smoked meats and vegetarian options like black beans, grilled vegetables, and guacamole.
The FPC Mission Committee invites you to join us for a fun and interactive night of celebration and consideration. We will have mission highlights around the room of people and places we have interacted with, upcoming opportunities to sign up for or find out about, people to ask questions of. We will be ready at 5:40 PM for any who want to look around ~ dinner at 6 PM. At the tables we will begin conversations of our own mission backgrounds, and then a bit of brainstorming together to end the night. Whether you are new to the church or born here, come and join the conversation! We'd love a potluck dessert table here…let us know if you want to add one!

Sign up here! The flowers add to our worship by reminding us of God’s creation, and then are broken down into smaller arrangements and delivered to members of our congregation as a reminder of the love of their church family and of God. The cost is $85, and you may pay online or with a check with worship flowers in the memo line. The signups are on a first come first serve basis. If you have a specific date you would like, sign up ASAP. Thank you for providing flowers each week to enhance worship.
