Exciting things are happening at FCUMC as we step into 2025 with a renewed focus on prayer! On Sunday we launched a year-long initiative to pray together for children, youth, and young adults. Each time you enter the building or attend a service, you’ll be offered a prayer card with a special prayer that we’re all invited to share throughout the year. This prayer hones in on children, youth, and young adults.
This focus on prayer extends far beyond this initiative. Prayer will be a central part of our discipleship efforts in 2025, especially during the upcoming winter and spring semesters of Fountain City Fellowship (FCF). These semesters will center on the theme of expanding our faith through prayer, as we seek to align ourselves with what God envisions for FCUMC in this Bicentennial Celebration year.
Through sermons, FCF groups, and even Sunday school classes, we’ll explore diverse and meaningful ways to be in conversation with God. God is always present, waiting for us to reconnect, like an old friend with whom no time ever feels lost. Yet, it’s easy for us to become distracted or disengaged. That’s why we’ll focus on equipping one another with the tools to make prayer a consistent and enriching part of our faith walk.
Let’s start this new year by prioritizing conversation and listening time with God. I encourage you to explore the offerings at FCF this semester and discover how you can deepen your prayer life. Together, we’ll steep ourselves and our church in prayer, opening our hearts to God’s guidance and presence in this milestone year.
