Shepherd Sunday

              

This Sunday we will be exploring Psalm 23 and the many ways we experience Jesus as our shepherd. In an era of uncertainty, it is good to know that we belong, that "we shall not want." Join us!
 
Thank You Men's Fellowship!

The Mens Fellowship would like to thank all who attended our annual picnic. Thank you to all who participated in our talent show. Thanks to Chris Lepard and Barry Nicholson for all their hard work and a special thanks to Candy Von Sparkles, our MC.

To make sure you see everything, after you like us, go to the pull-down menu on the "Like" button and click "Get Notifications." This way everything that we post will show up on your own Facebook wall.

Online Giving
Have you explored the opportunity of electronic giving? You can choose to have a set amount taken from your bank account on a regular basis or you can make a one (or more) time gift by checking account or credit card on our website. Your regular electronic giving means that your gift is available for ministry even when you are away (or forgot your checkbook!). Thank you for your continued support of the ministry of First Congregational Church!
