Your FPC Stephen Leaders (Dale Roos, Judi Arnold, Lissa Bradford) are happy to present to you our newest Stephen Ministers who will be commissioned THIS Sunday March 7th: Bill Carver, Barbara Heerman, Janice Eddlemon, Anne Osborne, and Gary Singer.

These five individuals have been meeting weekly and studying how to confidentially care for individuals who may be going through a rough time in their life. They join a wonderful group of caregivers who meet twice a month for continuing education and supervision: Angela Dyer, Mary Jane Wormer, Rachael Stanfill, Tammy Love, Sally Wanzer, and Ann Zander.

We are very blessed to have Stephen Ministry at FPC and wish to acknowledge all present and retired members that have trained and served others in our congregation. If you or someone you know is in need of a Stephen Minister, please reach out to Stephen Leader, Judi Arnold (615.579.0364) or one of our FPC pastors.

You are invited to dedicate worship flowers in honor of or in memory of someone each week. The cost is $85. This will be on a first come, first serve basis. If you have a specific date you would like, sign up ASAP. Thank you for providing flowers each Sunday. We will no longer use the poster in the church office, so please click here to review the available slots and click on the button to sign up. If you have any questions, email Sara at [email protected]. Thank you!

Do you have extra flower vases that you could donate for us to use when delivering flowers each week? If so, please bring to church this week and place in the bin marked vases. If you have vases to donate but are unable to bring them to church, please contact Anne Keener (615-794-5114 x219). Thank you in advance.

Zoom Yoga moved Thursday mornings at 9 AM. We hope this time will work for you whether you have practiced with us in the past or are completely new to yoga.

We practice together via Zoom using a video and then have time for conversation and prayer. Click here to join us or contact Betty Barcheski to learn more. All are welcome. 

The task force met again today and revised some of Phase 3 to allow the CE Committees to progress with their summer planning. We have updated the ReOpening Guideline here. We are still in Phase 2 but are hopeful that we will move forward as we continue to live as a covenant community.
