Weekly Update - January 7, 2021
Dear Members and Friends of Our FLCC Community,

We look forward to serving the Lord in this new year. What does it mean to you to be a disciple of Jesus? As Pastor Daniel taught us last Sunday, in 2022, lead me higher! 

Let's commit our lives to God and ask the Holy Spirit to guide us as we pursue His heart and move forward in His will.

Update on FLCC Safety Protocols
In accordance with health authorities, we recommend that all eligible people get the vaccine booster shot, Moderna or Pfizer if possible. Currently, vaccinated people with two shots are only about 25% effective against the omicron variant. With the booster shot, the protection rate goes up to about 70%.

Also, we are temporarily suspending all meals at church as we continue to monitor the omicron surge situation. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
