Dear Families,
Here we are in the middle of May-cember! 🤪🤣 If your calendars look as full as mine, I hope you are finding a few moments here & there to catch your breath and rest!
As we are in full-on “May mode,” the children’s committee (and FPC staff) are working on plans for fall. This year was still definitely not “normal,” so we are evaluating things we need to keep, reimagine, or let go of in the future. If you have ideas or feedback particularly regarding children’s ministry, please reach out and let me know! I would love to hear your suggestions via email, by phone, or over coffee! This might include Sunday School, nursery/preschool, worship (with regard to children), mid-week programming, family service opportunities, parent Sunday school or small groups, or communications (like this one!). You may also reach out to any of our children’s committee members – list attached.

This Sunday
Join us at either 9am or 11am in the sanctuary! There will be two identical services featuring the children’s musical, “The Three Trees,” as the sermon/message. Please come support our children’s choirs!
During the 9am service, we will present bibles to rising three year olds (RSVP was requested through separate emails).
At 10am, families and children are invited to the Elm Street Prayground for doughnuts and fellowship.
