- Sunday School Kickoff: Today marks the beginning of the Sunday school season here at FMC. Sunday school will begin at 10:00am and there are classes available for children and adults.
- Adult Sunday School: This fall, the adult Sunday school class will read “Stuck Together: the Hope of a Christian Witness in a Polarized World” by Nelson Kraybill. Copies of the book are available at the back of the sanctuary.
- Worship Bags: Children’s worship bags are available at the back of the sanctuary. These activity bags are geared towards kids aged 10 and under. If you use a bag during the service, please place the bag beside the box after the worship service.
- Youth Activities Invite: It’s no secret that the youth and children of FMC are actively involved in tons of extra-curricular activities. As a way of supporting our youth and children outside of church, we invite children and their families to notify Pastor Alvis of a few of the extra-curricular events that they would like members of the congregation to be able to attend (games, concerts, plays, etc.). Families should send the dates/times/locations of a few of these events to Pastor Alvis so that he can put together a schedule to share (strictly) within the congregation.
- MennoCon 25: Next summer is the biennial gathering of MC USA. We are considering sending our youth group to the convention, which will take place in Greensboro, NC. If your pre-teen/teenager is interested, please let Pastor Alvis or Lauren know.
