Christmas Events 25 Years of Ministry NIV Psalm 78:4 .. we will tell the next generation the

December is a great time of year, celebrating Jesus’ coming to us. FCC’s Christmas Banquet will be held at Bethel College on Saturday the 13th. You must purchase your tickets in advance (see Anna). On Sunday the 14th we have the annual Christmas music program—now is the time to get involved (see Guy). That night the Youth Group has its party (see Pastor Mark). On Sunday the 21st we will have an update on Sheila’s trip to

Israel. It is a fitting time to hear about a congregation in Palestine. That afternoon is our annual Pastor’s Open House, followed that evening by the College Small Group’s party (see Nathan). On Tuesday the 23rd Emily Bastine (missionary to Mexico) has an open house at her folks. There is no Wednesday PM service on the 24th nor the 31st, and 10:45 Worship only on Sunday December 28th (Pastor Mark preaching) and January 4th.

praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, his power, and the wonders he has done. Milestones are an important part of life. This past year has been Tammy and my 25th year of ministry, it is also my 30th year of being a Christian. We are thanking God for the privilege of knowing Him and getting to serve Him in a variety of capacities and locations.

From Chapel Hill in Michigan, to New Horizons in Washington, from Costa Rica to Faith in Indiana, and points in between. On Sunday the 7th we will show a video montage of what the Lord has done. Then, we’re inviting both current and past friends to stop by for our Open House/Reception and say “howdy” on Sunday the 21st. -Pastor Randy
