THIS SUNDAY AT 10:15AM - This Sunday we are kicking off our Christmas series! We are excited for you to join with us in celebration!

CONGREGATIONAL MEETING NEXT SUNDAY, DECEMBER 4th - Since early November, the 2023 budget proposal has been communicated through various channels and two informational meetings were held. Therefore, we are planning that next Sunday's meeting, during which official members of Faith Church will vote in regard to the proposed budget, will be fairly brief.

CHRISTMAS COMMUNITY EVENT - After a wonderful evening in the community during the downtown Trick and Treat event, our church family has been personally invited back for an event next month! Christmas Town Tree Lighting will take place on Saturday, December 3rd. A light parade beginning at 5:00 followed by festivities downtown will give us the opportunity to share treats once again. Our church family will host a booth serving hot chocolate, hot cider, and cookies. We will need supplies for our drinks and also many, many cookies! Please sign up here if you are able to help make this happen! We look forward to sharing joy and being a bright light in our community ... in a very sweet way!
