Support Collide
Many years ago the ministry of Collide was birthed out of FPC. It soon grew to large for our building and spun off as its own para church ministry, but we are still in partnership. The collide gala is going on RIGHT NOW- You can help them by bidding- click the above image or here

You could get meat from Fred
or learn Ukelele from Todd
or buy an original Gini Bunnell or Nicki Lang...
basically there is a bunch of great FPC stuff on this auction- and so much more- jump in, it goes to a great cause!
Big News
The day after we said goodbye to Becca, we welcomed Pastor Jan Smith to be our Interim Executive Pastor. Pastor Jan has been a part of the FPC community for over 20 years and is well respected and deeply loved. We are so blessed to welcome her ministry within our community.
Chitul Letters
Very soon you should be getting your Chitul welcome packet- Ypu can start writing your kids right away.
You can
hand write or
email them-
Here is where the email starts-
the section writing my sponsored child has some great suggestions about writing. Here is an excerpt
"Remind the child he is special, loved, smart and full of potential. Tell him you care about him, and that’s why you’re his sponsor.
Tell the child about your family and the place you live. Ask her about her family and about the place she lives. Ask about the food, holidays, culture, weather and so on.
Ask the child what he likes to do, and share some of the things you like to do. Share stories about having good character by serving others and being honest. Tell the child that God has a plan for her life. If you pray for her and her family regularly, tell her so!
Sponsor letters are very powerful for the children. It is amazing how even a short note can be a great encouragement! After you have written, you can expect to receive a response within approximately 90 days."
Please send a letters as soon as the welcome kit has arrived to each sponsor family.
