Announcements for Sunday, September 15, 2024

  • Outdoor Worship at FMC: Next Sunday we will worship outdoors (weather-permitting) at the church. Be sure to bring a lawn chair or blanket. Because we will be outdoors, the service will not be live-streamed next Sunday.
  • FMC Directory: Paper copies of the updated FMC directory can be found 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.
  • Encounter Invitation: All Friendship Mennonite attenders are invited to “Encounter” on Sunday, September 22, at 7pm at First Baptist Church in Shaker Heights (parking is in the back). Encounter is a monthly gathering of prayer, singing, silence, and conversation. This intergenerational fellowship group welcomes Christians of all types, seekers, and other people of good will to build community with one another. Encounter is an effort to work against the fracturing of our world by creating a space of care and healing built around God’s love. See Anita Yoder or Ted Steiner with questions
