MISSIONARY PRAYER GUIDE
The missions committee and our missionaries have been diligently working together to provide FBC with a “Missionary Prayer Guide” for 2023. These are available at the green desk in the Worship Center foyer. This is a great way to learn about our missionaries and how to pray for them. Pick yours up this Sunday!

CONGREGATIONAL MEETING | FEBRUARY 19
On February 1, Elder Chairman Don Westbrook sent an email regarding Constitution revisions. Under Article IX, before an amendment to the constitution can be approved by the board of trustees, it shall be presented to the congregation for their inspection for a period of two weeks, which is the purpose of our providing it to you at this time.

This revised constitution is a culmination of many hours of prayer and hard work by elders, deacons, pastors, staff, and members of our transition team and focus groups. There will be a congregational meeting on Sunday, February 19th in order to give you an opportunity to ask questions or make comments.

Hard copies of the Constitution will be available this Sunday at the Blue desk in the Worship Center foyer.
