Connect with Pastor Kathryn

Pastor Kathryn's Coffice Hours return on Monday, September 14. Stop by the Cozy Brew Café on Mondays between 8-10am if you have a question, want to talk about something, or just say "hi" and pray on your way to work!

During her sabbatical, Pastor Kathryn reflected on her weekly rhythms and the need to protect time for study, personal growth, and sermon preparation. She’s now using a more intentional weekly structure shaped by those insights.

Her schedule includes two types of time: cloistered and accessible.

Cloistered time is for focused work or meetings with limited interruptions.

Accessible time is when she’s in the office, visiting Fellowship family members, or heading to appointments. Quick check‑ins are welcome, though she may not always be immediately available. If you'd like to schedule a time to meet, please email her or use this link.

Announcements

There are many ways to help with the Artisan Bazaar - can you do (at least) one o these?

Time – can you serve as a greeter or work in the Fellowship Café? Please sign up in the Dogwood Lobby.
Do you have a soup, cookie, or dessert bar recipe? We need these for sale at the Café. Please sign up in the Dogwood Lobby.
Fellowship Family Sales Table: Church members may sell homemade items with removable price tags. There’s no fee, but please donate 10% of sales to the church. Contact Carollynn to participate.
Yard signs are available in the volunteer office near the side entrance and can be posted until the sale weekend. You can sign up for up to five signs on the clipboard with the signs.

If you have questions about anything related to the sale, please speak to Susan Harman or Carollynn Campbell.

Four “neighborhoods” – Fellowship’s Small Groups – are underway! Groups meet on Mondays (6pm, in person; 6:30pm online) and Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10am to discuss Staying at the Table: Being the Church We Say We Are, by Terri Hord Owens. If you are interested in participating in one of the four groups, please plan to attend next week. If you need a book, you can pick one up during office hours in the church office for $12 each.

Join the Fellowship Family and FPC mission partner Voices Together Now in the library after worship on Sunday, November 8, until 1pm, for the second of a two-part screening and discussion of the documentary Bad Faith 2026: Christian Nationalism in Power. Lunch is available for $10 per person.

To sign up and reserve a lunch, please email Mark Kirstner by November 7. You do not have to have attended the October 11 event to participate in the second part.

Connections to Worship and Community Life at Fellowship Presbyterian Church is a helpful guide to worship, events, and service opportunities happening between now and the end of the year. It even includes dates for your spring calendar! Physical copies are available at the church in the Narthex, Dogwood Lobby, and Office Entry Lobby.
