The annual All- Youth Spring Retreat to Mo-Ranch is this weekend! This year’s speaker is JR Cochran, one of the ministers at The Well in Abilene, and he will focus his energy around the topic “Epic.” Please keep us in your prayers this week as leaders prepare for the event, as we travel to and from Mo Ranch, and as we work to grow together as a youth group while at Mo Ranch.

CHURCH WORK DAY One of the real fun times of last year was the “Spring Cleaning” day at the church where a whole lot of us came to spruce up our church building and grounds. We are going to do it again this year. We will start this Saturday, April 6 at 8 am and conclude after we eat lunch together. Come any time during the morning hours.
This is for the whole church family. In particular, we like it when families bring their children. Middle school and high school youth are also encouraged to come and lend a hand. Believe me – we can find a job for everyone.
Some of the kinds of things we can do include cleaning kitchens, washing windows, outside work including tree trimming and raking, cleaning out closets, cleaning classrooms and painting. If you have any special projects please let Barbara McLean know in the church office. We can’t do everything but will give it a try! We do best what we do together.

We have a variety of Christian Education programs available on Sunday mornings for those of all ages.

Periodically, the Inquirer’s Class is led by our senior pastor, Cliff Stewart, and is a great starting point for new members, visitors, or even current members who would like to know more about how the Presbyterian Church—and FCPC specifically—works. We’d love for you to join us—we have a class for you!
