  • Sometimes being in ministry together is heavy and poignant and heartwrenching. And sometimes it’s whipped cream mustaches and Mexican food to celebrate birthdays. We love LeRoy, our Director of Congregational Care! . #fcumc #fcumcstaff #birthdaysarebettertogether . 🎥: @jgargis
  • We will be collecting complete Cleaning Kits and Hygiene Kits to help our neighbors on the east coast recover from #HurricaneFlorence. This storm is still beating down as it moves inland - but even when the rains stop, the clean-up effort will just begin.⠀ .⠀ To see the full Cleaning Kit and Hygiene Kit supplies list, click on the links below or visit umcor.org. You can drop complete kits off in the Welcome Center or in the church office until Monday, October 1. You can also designate financial gifts to go toward relief by putting “UMCOR” in the memo line.⠀ .⠀ Cleaning Kits: https://www.umcor.org/umcor/relief-supplies/relief-supply-kits/cleaning⠀ .⠀ Hygiene Kits: https://www.umcor.org/umcor/relief-supplies/relief-supply-kits/hygiene⠀ .⠀ #fcumc #fcumcmissions #umcor

  • On Sunday, pastor Tom Ballard challenged us with these words from James 2: "Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works." . Fittingly, we also celebrated the beginning of the 150th year of our United Methodist Women, ladies in our church and in the Church who are committed to living out our faith, hope, and love in action through mission and meeting the needs of our brothers and sisters in our community and worldwide. Faith without works is dead. But faith lived out in works can heal the whole world. . #fcumc #fcumcmissions #umw

  • The book of John gives us four chapters' worth of Jesus' last moments with His disciples. Beginning in chapter 13, we get a seat at the Passover table as Jesus entrusts the weight of Heaven into the hands and feet of twelve fickle and flighty men, not yet enlightened and empowered. . And here we are, centuries later, hearing again the words of Jesus one sunrise away from His death march, over the crackle of unleavened bread and a splash of wine, between the traditional recitations of the Passover feast recalling God's mercy and attention toward an afflicted people. . Above all, Jesus tells these men heavy with wine and sleep and celebration, love. Love as Jesus has loved. Pay attention as Jesus as paid attention. See the world as Jesus has seen the world. Above all, Church, love as relentlessly and recklessly as Jesus has loved. Love with your very lives. . That, above all, is our identity and calling card as followers of Jesus Christ. That, above all, is our charge. That, above all and of utmost importance, Church, is our proof.
