Secret Sisters |

Women of FBC! We are beginning a new season of Secret Sisters that will run from August to February. Secret Sisters is a great way to get to know other ladies in our church by praying for and secretly gifting them once in awhile.
Attached is a survey for you to fill out if you would like to be a part of this fun venture.
Please talk to Katie Heidtbrink or Becky Henkel if you have any questions.

Pastor's Pen |

Brothers & Sisters,
WHAT. A. WEEK! To say that Vacation Bible School was a success would be an understatement. 76 kiddos, 40 adult volunteers, and more fun than we could've ever thought. Thank you all so very much for the countless hours you spent helping to help make this year a hit. Be sure to check out the photo and video link above. I want you all to know that I am praying for you as you soak in this last bit of Summer before life gets back to normal. I am praying for the upcoming school year; for the students, for teachers, for staff and faculty, for homeschool families, and for a great season as we start looking toward the Fall. We have so much to be grateful for and so much to look forward to.
(You will find the Family Meeting Minutes from July attached below.)
It is such a joy to be on this journey with you! |
