Penultimate!

It’s one of my favorite words. As you know, it means “next to the last”, and so it fits the activities of the day. For this evening at 5PM, at the home of Sean and Marianne Turner, the penultimate Campfire Fellowship will take place. Bring a chair to sit on, and something yummy or munchie to share, and gather at their place. We’ll eat about 5 and enjoy some great fellowship with our brothers and sisters. I’m told there will…

T MINUS 2 DAYS!

Old Fashioned Sunday is almost here. It’s going to be a fun and blessed day, I’m certain. Great music from The Songsters, old fashioned preaching, old fashioned costumes, a pie baking competition, great food in our new Commons, face painting and balloon art and Shrinky Dink for the kids, corn hole, horse shoes, and a couple other games for all ages, a dunk tank, and even the possibility of somebody getting a pie smooshed into their face! We always enjoy…

Questions? Answers!

Don’t forget this Wednesday, at 6:30 PM, we will have our Bible Talk with the Elders, and attempt to answer any questions that might come in.

And… we’re off!

Summer is really here at FBC when we start our campfire fellowships, and the first one is this Saturday, June 24th, at 5PM, at Johnson Acres. Here’s what you need to know: Bring a dish to pass if you are able. If you can’t do that, please don’t let it stop you from coming. We will have burgers and dogs on the grill, and there is always PLENTY of side dishes, so come anyway. Bring a lawn chair to sit…

Dads and Babies!

Sunday will be a blessed day, even more so than normal. Every Lord’s Day is so special and so important to us as believers. We ought never miss a one, for God always blesses us when we gather to worship Him. But this Sunday two things are happening that I hope you’ll be a part of: Father’s Day – The one day out of the year specially set aside to honor dads. Baby Dedication – Several families will be bringing…
