Sacred Community Project – Your Support Matters!


By now we hope you have received a letter in the mail about our Sacred Community Project, a $400,000 effort to strengthen and care for our church campus. This project focuses on eliminating sanctuary repair debt, renovating Baird Hall, and growing our Capital Replacement Fund for future needs.


We gently encourage everyone to submit their gifts by April 26. Contributions can be made online at www.fpcauburn.org/give or by check to the church office (please note "Sacred Community Project" in the memo line.) 


Every gift, large or small, helps ensure our spaces continue to support worship, fellowship, and service for years to come.

2026 Lay Readers Needed

 

Our church community loves having members of all ages participate in worship leadership. Below is a sign up to serve as a lay reader in 2026. Younger members are welcome to sign up with a friend or family member.

 

When you sign up for a Sunday, you will be contacted in the week leading up by one of our pastors. All of the readings and prayers will be provided and we are happy to answer any questions. 

 

Thank you for serving in this worship leadership role!
