Donations can be left in the Mission Basket in the church lobby.
Has being part of this community of faith made a positive difference
in your life? Isn’t that worth sharing with a friend or family member
who lacks such a community of faith? 

Invitations are simple and non-threatening –
you can call, text, email, or
use one of the invitations you can find in the church lobby. 

Studies have shown that most people start attending a church because
someone invited them, and most unchurched people would respond
favorably to an invitation. 
On Easter Sunday, breakfast will be served at 7am following the Sunrise Service. 
If you are planning to go to the service and join us for breakfast afterwards, please sign up online or on the bulletin board across from the church office. 
There will be a free will offering.  
We will receive this offering on Easter Sunday, April 9.

Because of your generous donations, the Senior High Seekers were able to travel to Lynchburg, Virginia last July to work with Interfaith Ministries. 
The week was not just about the physical work we do, but the connections we made in the community and with each other.  
We also found, through actions and conversations, that we could explore our spirituality together and grew deeper in our faith together. 
Thank you again for your overwhelming support.  
Please join us on Sunday, March 26th following worship
during coffee hour to see and hear about our experiences.

26 members from FPC (listed above) will be traveling to Madisonville, KY.  
Madisonville is a manufacturing hub and county seat located in Hopkins County in the western coal regions of Kentucky. They were devastated by the tornados of December 10 & 11 in 2021, when 63 people in the area were killed
along with lots of physical property damage. 
First Presbyterian Church in Madisonville hosts volunteer work teams that assist in recovery efforts.
