All Congregational Meeting | Sunday, June 13
Immediately following the outdoor service
Let’s go fly a kite–with Dad!
Check out this new Fellowship event for Father’s Day! Following the church service on Sunday June 20th from 10-11am, we will be working with the wind in the outdoor family space by flying kites to honor dad. Bring your own kites and let’s see how many of them we can send soaring! Let’s fill the FPC property with colorful kites!
No registration needed!
This weekend we will honor all those that are currently serving or have previously served our country. Our wreath layer this year is Ralph Roepke who served in the US Navy. If you are not able to join us in person on Sunday, you can download a PDF of this year’s list of FPC service members, past and present, which also contains a short biography for Ralph.
Send us your grad info!
It’s your last chance to send in your info for participation in Graduation Sunday. Here’s what we need to know to add your graduate to the service:
- Name of graduate and graduate’s parent’s names.
- Graduate photo
- Name of school
- A sentence about how the FPC family has provided support or how your interaction at FPC has made a positive impact on your life.

Rocky Railway VBS
June 21-23 | 5:30 – 7:30 pm
Full steam ahead for 3 rockin’ nights on the rails! We are thrilled to offer a multi-age Family Outdoor VBS at FPC. Join us in FPC’s backyard on June 21-23 at 5:30-7:30 pm. No meal will be served but take some delicious snacks to chew-chew on at home.
Because our volunteers will not be able to be “hands on” to help, we ask each crew signing up to provide their own adult crew leader–Mom, Dad, Grandma or all!
Register Now: $25 for the first passenger and $15 for each sibling. Adults and volunteers board for free! (Space is limited to a maximum of 110 travelers.) Register using the link below to confirm your train ticket! Registration is open to FPC families first. (Don’t take a chance waiting for the caboose!)
Email Patricia Coley, Director of Children’s Ministry, with any questions.
Volunteers needed to help assist travelers on the Rocky Railway!
