Adults, Youth, and Children!!!!!

We had a wonderful first week of FPC Summer Together! Members of all ages gathered for fellowship and a meal. Youth and children packed 50 bags of food items to be distributed through the Auburn Sustenance Program and adults had a meaningful study on what it means to pursue the mission of Christ's church.

Registration is still available for June 28 and July 5 & 19.  Sign-up here!

Ushers Requested! 

We are in need of ushers for July 5 (two weekends from now). Are you available to help? The Usher Coordinator, Quincy Hochard, will make sure you understand the role and answer any questions you may have. The worship committee appreciates your help! 

Please see Quincy before or after the 11:00 Service if you are able to help. Thank you!

Welcome June 21 Guest Preacher, Mary Moore Driggers

This Sunday we are pleased to welcome the Rev. Mary Moore Driggers as our guest preacher. Mary Moore grew up in South Carolina and earned a Christian Education degree from Presbyterian College (go Blue Hose!) After college, Mary Moore worked with the Presbyterian Mission Agency through the YAV (Young Adult Volunteer) program in Los Angeles, CA working with people experiencing homelessness.

Mary Moore graduated from Union Presbyterian Seminary in 2022 and spent a year as a chaplain with the Emory Healthcare system before being installed as Associate Pastor at First Presbyterian Peachtree City in the summer of 2023. We are grateful for her willingness to be with us this Sunday to continue our summer sermon series.

Summer Sermon Series

Appreciate These Things: Eight Ways of Cultivating Compassion

This June and July, we invite you to join us for a summer sermon series inspired by Jill Duffield’s Appreciate These Things: Eight Ways of Cultivating Compassion. Drawing on the virtues named in Philippians 4:8, this series will explore how followers of Christ are called to nurture compassion, gentleness, gratitude, and grace in everyday life. In a divisive and broken world, these timely messages will encourage us to become people who reflect the love and mercy of Christ in our relationships, our community, and our witness.

Punch on the Lawn - 'Tis the Season

Please join us for a time of fellowship in the courtyard after the 11:00 a.m. worship service. If you would be willing to provide punch one Sunday, please sign-up in the narthex or follow this link.

RSVP Here!

Ani and Faithful look forward to seeing

any and all of the FPC family at their wedding and reception.
