Just Say Know is a sex-education program that is based on the underlying theme that factual knowledge coupled with spiritual insights enable individuals to make the best decisions for their lives. The programs are designed for the above-recommended age groups; however, parents are the best judges of the needs of their children coupled with their readiness for the information presented. UCC and Ridglea Christian Church will partner to provide these important programs to our families. Just Say Know is part of a broad curriculum that includes Eighters Camp (attend after 8th grade). If you have questions about the curriculum, please contact Rev. Kera Watts (kera@uccftw.com). To register, click the button below. The deadline to register is February 18.

New Worship Series Begins on March 6
|
|
Most of us have at some point felt like a nobody – insignificant, invisible, worthless. The Gospel of Luke is a first-century portrait of Jesus with a particular focus on his ministry with those who were considered nobodies. For Lent, join us as we read through the Gospel of Luke together. Each week, we’ll turn our attention to specific stories that illustrate Jesus’ concern for those who were marginalized by society, and as we do, we’ll hear his word for our lives today. Click the scripture reading below to read along with us. This Sermon Series begins on March 6th, and there will be daily readings until April 23rd. To read along, visit our website below to find the daily readings.
