Thanks to those who donated poinsettias in honor or memory of a loved one. Please feel free to take them home after the Christmas Eve Service. Cellophane wrappers will be available in the coatroom.

Join us tonight for Christmas caroling to our shut in friends. Meet here at 4:30 if you would like to help pack the cookies we will deliver as we
carol. We will split into several groups & leave the church at 5 PM. Everyone is welcome! Cookies needed! Please have them here by 4:30 PM.

Christmas offering will be in the pew racks through December. The Christmas offering will be divided between the Youth Costa Rica mission trip and FBC’s General Fund.

Missionary Christmas prayer letters arrive weekly! Please stop by the rack outside of the chapel to pick up your copy. You will be encouraged & challenged by the news they share.

The Nominating Committee has been meeting. A list of nominees for FBC Boards & Officers is posted on the ramp bulletin board. Please direct any concerns or questions to a member of the committee.
