We are so grateful you are joining us for worship, and our prayer is that you have a fresh encounter with Jesus Christ. Throughout our service, we have times of prayer, singing, preaching and an opportunity to respond to the gospel message. At FBC, we invite you to be yourself. We are imperfect people that have hope in a perfect God, and we want to shine the spotlight on Him. In order for us to connect with you, please complete the Connection Card located in the pew. At the end of service, please take it to the kiosk in the Connection Center as we have a gift for you. Also, we have free Bibles available in the Connection Center if you need a copy of God’s Word.
