In response to recent state and federal mask recommendation changes that vaccinated individuals may now enter public spaces without a mask, we are making all of our gatherings and facilities mask-optional. For the time being, we are still asking that everyone maintain a safe distance from one another as an added precaution. Our desire is to both honor those who have chosen to get vaccinated by allowing them to attend mask-free (if they so desire) as well as respect those who have chosen not to receive a vaccination. We ask that everyone respect one another's personal convictions. In addition, please be sensitive to those who would rather not engage in physical greetings. As always, our first goal is to maintain the unity of Christ while also making every effort to equip one another to live out our faith.

Spring is finally here and we need help maintaining the church’s flowerbeds. Feel free to stop by the church at your convenience and pull weeds from whatever flowerbed catches your eye. If you contact us in advance, we can arrange for the shed to be open so you can get tools; otherwise feel free to bring your own.

If you are willing to provide a full or partial camp scholarship, please contact Kim Collins or make a donation to FBC with “Camp” noted on your check. We have students going to both Camp Lake Louise and Lake Ann Camp.

Students in 7-13th Grade are invited to attend Higher Ground at Lake Louise Camp this summer. Cost is $350 per student. Camp weeks are: 7 & 8th Graders - July 25-31; 9 & 10th Graders - July 11-17; 11, 12, & 13th Graders - August 1-7. You can register online at: https://highergroundatlakelouise.com/. We also have students going to Lake Ann Camp the week of August 2-7. Lake Ann holds camp for grades 4-12 simultaneously. You can register online at https://lakeanncamp.com/. If your child plans to go, please let Kim Collins know as soon as possible.

The church office will be open on Wednesdays from 10:00 AM-4:00 PM if you need to stop in for any reason.
