Securing the Building
Hello FCC,
We have recently had some issues with the exterior doors of the church not being locked. With the temporary absence of a permanent pastor, we all need to be very diligent about making sure the parking lot and main doors are locked and secure whenever we are finished in the building (after worship, after meetings, etc.) Please take an extra few minutes to check before you leave. If walking the stairs is difficult, please feel free to secure the top main doors when you leave and then drive your vehicle down to the parking lot door to check that before heading home.
Thank you for your assistance!

Sunday Morning Prayer Requests
Hello FCC,
As we will be hosting a variety of pastors for a while, we are making adjustments to the worship process in order to keep some consistency like the pastor suggested this past Sunday. With this in mind, Beth Petersen has volunteered to read the recap from the pulpit of our weekly prayer requests that come through the prayer chain email, as well as any new Sunday morning prayer requests that are texted to her. Please text your NEW SUNDAY MORNING prayer requests to Beth at 414-588-3907.
Thank you,
