"Keeping the Gospel at the Center"

Acts 6 (NIV)

The Lord's Supper

February 18 and 25

They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. (Acts 2:42)

We will observe the sacrament of communion each Sunday during Lent. The Lord's Supper is essential to our personal and corporate discipleship. How so? In 1 Corinthians 12, the Holy Spirit teaches us that each person is a member of the body of Christ. Each person is different from the others, serving various functions in the body. And at the head of the body is Christ.

The Lord's Supper is where our union with Christ and one another is visibly and spiritually demonstrated. The Sundays of Lent will be special this year because we will offer our unity to God at our Savior's table each week. The Session invites us to devote ourselves to the apostle's teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer.

Communion Prep to Begin

There is an opportunity on Sunday mornings for students to learn about communion so that they can be ready to receive communion at the Maundy Thursday Service during Holy Week.

This will occur on three Sunday mornings (Feb. 18, 25, and March 3) during the 456 time in worship. If you have any conflicts or questions, please let Pastor Jeremy know.

Thanks for the Love

Dear Church Family,

The Trinity Kids were thrilled to receive your Valentine cards and Valentine Sweet Men! Thank you for showering God’s love on His little folks!

Bev & the Trinity Kids Assistant Team

The Member Care Deacons and I want to thank the Trinity Kids for making the beautiful Valentines for the Member Care Team to distribute. The kids sent messages in their Valentines that said, "God Loves you!" and "We prayed for you!"

We would also like to thank Bev Weston and Colleen Mahan for their assistance in coordinating this project.

Member Care Minister Elaine Stuebgen

The Vitality of 456 Ministry Depends on You!

We need your help! We have witnessed an incredible response to our new class for 4th through 6th graders (456) during worship. This is where you come in - we need church members interested in regular, meaningful conversations and relationships with these students. If you are interested in helping with this vital ministry, please call Linda Smith in the church office. Thank you!

Mission Partner News

BPCC Blessing Tree

In past years, you may recall the "Apple Tree" shared by Bakerstown Presbyterian Children's Center, giving members of FPCB the opportunity to support the mission of the preschool. This month, we will be sharing a "Blessing Tree". If you would like to support the children's center, you will find the tree just inside the preschool door on Sunday, February 11, and Sunday, February 18.

Your support will allow the growing preschool to enhance its Christian curriculum with additional educational classroom items as well as offer an education to children by supporting our scholarship fund. If you would like to make a purchase or a donation, please feel free to take one of the hearts from the Blessing Tree and you can either purchase the item for the preschool or make a monetary donation for that particular item. Any checks can be made payable to BPCC. Thank you for your continued support!

Honduras Hope Mission

Providing Medical Care to the Residents of La Villa

We want to share an update we received from Dr. Rob who is currently in Honduras with the Medical Mission Team.

Our visits with each patient who comes to the clinic are not overly comprehensive - basically only a few minutes with each patient. But we try to cover all their complaints since it is often their only chance all year to see a doctor. And they never complain about the wait. In fact, they are all effusively grateful.

During the course of the day, the medical clinic saw a little over 338 patients. The dental clinic saw another 83 patients.

Please continue to pray for the mission group and the people they are serving.
