Upcoming Events
Men's Prayer Breakfast
The next Men’s Prayer Breakfast is this Saturday, April 11th, at 8:30 a.m. in Building C. Men of the church gather for a home-cooked meal, real conversation, and focused prayer. Fathers are encouraged to bring their sons and be part of building the next generation.
Wedding Shower Drop
Congratulations to Dustin & Falon Hughes, who were married on March 28th! The Hughes family recently joined FBC, and we are so excited for them! We will have a Wedding Shower Drop starting this Sunday, April 12th to celebrate them. All items can be dropped off in the main lobby. Here is a link to their registration:
NEW 4-week Bible Study
There will be a new 4-week Sunday morning Adult Bible study, taught by Stephen Suttles, starting this Sunday, April 12th at 11:00. The Resurrection, an Apologetics Intensive. “This class isn't about 'apologizing' for our faith—it’s a deep dive into the historical evidence and logical proof that the Resurrection is a literal, world-changing fact we can trust today."
Adults join us in room A114. K-5th will have their Bible study in building C, and the teens will meet upstairs in the loft (stairs located directly across from the men’s restroom). Again, all classes are offered at 11:00 only.
Awana Sparks Fun Day
AWANA Sparks (K-2nd grade only), come have fun with Mrs. Coleen after church on Sunday, April 12th! As soon as the 11:00 service is finished, you can head over to building C.
Parents, please send your child with two white t-shirts and $5! They’ll be creating a fun tie-dye shirt and a cross shirt. You can pick your child up at 3:00. Lunch is provided!

New Connections Class
Our next New Connections Class will be held on Tuesday, April 14th, at 6:30 PM. This class is a great way to learn more about who we are as a church and how we operate. It’s led by Pastor Phillip, giving you a chance to meet him personally and ask any questions you may have. If you’re considering becoming a member, this class is the next step—but there’s absolutely no pressure to join just by attending.
To register, click here or fill out a Communication Card, available in the main lobby near the front doors.
Nerfn' with Dad
Dads, brace yourselves...it’s time to unleash your inner child and report for duty on our Nerf battlefield! On Saturday, April 25th, grab your blasters, dodge those foam darts, and prepare for an epic Nerf war with your K–5th graders. Expect laughter, friendly chaos, dramatic slow-motion dodges (in your mind at least), and stories your kids will be telling for weeks. It’s going to be loud, energetic, and ridiculously fun—and most importantly, it’s a chance to build memories that last far beyond the final foam dart.

Thank you for sharing these updates and prayer needs. It’s encouraging to see the church active in fellowship, study, and family events. The Men’s Prayer Breakfast and upcoming Bible study sound meaningful. Reading this also connects with my study of The Government Of God Summary, reminding me of order, prayer, and community focus.
