Join us for our Growth Track Launch Party on January 7, 2018 at 6pm in the sanctuary! Come learn more about our Growth Track and the new phase we'll be adding in 2018! The Growth Track is a year long discipleship plan where you will "Encounter Jesus, Experience Freedom, Discover Purpose, and Walk in Destiny." Our first step of the Growth Track is our Encounter Weekend which will take place January 12-13. Our second step, the Freedom Course, will begin January 21. Stay tuned for the launch of our third step, Discover. More info coming soon! 
Registration for Man Camp is now available! This is unlike any retreat you've experienced; because it's not a retreat - it's Man Camp! We'll dive into God's word over 4 sessions and sing out in praise led by Jairo Maldonado. Horseshoe, ping pong and fishing tournaments are available as well as hitting the links at Squaw Valley Golf Course. Late night activities, disc golf, snacks, and the Arrowhead Man Cave are all up for grabs! Man Camp is February 23-25 at Arrowhead Camp and Retreat Center. There are two price options, $150 for Lodge Housing which includes bedding or $130 for Dorm Housing (bring your own bedding). Also included are 4 meals (dinner Friday is on your own) and a Man Camp t-shirt. Fill out the registration forms located on the bulletin boards in the east and west hallways and turn it in to the church office with your payment by February 4. Checks can be made out to "FWF".
