JOIN US SUNDAY AT 10:15 FOR "OUTSIDERS INCLUDED" - As we study Jesus' revolutionary teaching in the Gospel of Luke, we'll observe His heart for the marginalized, see His mission "to seek and to save the lost" in action and be challenged to live out the ways of Jesus in our spheres of influence.
LADIES PRAYER GROUP - Women of all ages both in our church family and from the community are invited to join in a time of prayer for our families, church, leaders, and overall unity in the body of Christ. This gathering will take place on November 19th at 2:00PM in the Chapel.
UPCOMING MEMBERS MEETINGS - Official Members of Faith Church should have received an email with the 2025 Proposed Budget. If you haven't, please let us know. Our Annual Members Meeting will be held after the Worship Gathering on November 24th and it will include the opportunity to vote in regards to the proposed budget.
CHRISTMAS CHEER - Our church family has a fun oppor-TUNA-ty to continue our support of Christmas Cheer! As we work together to feed families in Polk County, we will be collecting cans of tuna, chicken, and salmon through Sunday, December 22nd. If you are able, will you please consider donating a few cans of food to help MEAT the needs of hungry people? Food boxes will be delivered on Christmas Eve morning. If you would like to help pack food boxes, please join us on Christmas Eve morning, 6:00 am at Polk County Fairgrounds. If you or someone you know could use some extra food this year, please sign up here or ask the church office for more information.
