Association Comparison
Over the last few months, FCC Council has been working to create a plan of action in order to present the congregation with the requested information about potential association options as well as opportunities for discussion. Our first step is providing an Association Comparison Chart which provides a quick look at the association options on topics and questions collected from the congregation. Please take some time to review this information, explore each association's website, and mark your calendar with the important dates listed on the document.
The In-Depth Information on Association Options document (which will provide additional information on the topics and questions listed in the Comparison Chart) would be made available to the congregation soon.
Thank you for your patience,
Terry Buchmann
FCC Council Moderator

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. They have fun events and handouts for the kids, raffles and lots more.
There are two ways to participate in this event:
- Help us by donating packs of water to hand out to those in attendance (waters can be placed on the counter in the kitchen),
and/or
- Sign up to help us as we hand out the water! It’s really a fun event and even more fun as we compete with our friends at LifePoint Church to see who can hand out the most water. (See sign up sheet on communication table in the Narthex)
Hope to see you there!

Join in Prayer!
Jim Backstrom will be leading corporate prayer the first and third Wednesdays of each month from 7 - 8 PM. If you are not able to join us in person, please pray for our church, Pastor Kevin and his family, Kitchen Coordinator, and member/friend Frank & Ruth Rappold.
Taking Acts 4:23-24, 29-31 as a guide, we are asking that the Holy Spirit will shake up the way we all are used to praying. Like the early apostles, we want to ask for more boldness for the church in this day and age. He can change our sometimes safe and harmless prayers into prayers that will change our community and even our world.
Happy Birthday!
