Special Events With A Purpose…

First Christian Church has always had special events on special days. Whether it’s Easter, or a 4th of July celebration or Mother’s Day or Christmas, or most recently a Memorial Day celebration. We keep an eye on the calendar to see what is coming up next so we can plan something that would potentially attract people both in and out of the church. National Holidays are common ground for everyone to celebrate who lives in the country.

Father’s Day is coming up next on June 16. Lynn and I will team up on the message which will be an interview format with a father focus. We will also have a special gift for all the Father’s who attend.

Special event days are a great opportunity to invite someone who wouldn’t normally come to church. We are purposely planning services that will introduce new people to the body and ultimately to Jesus. Pray for those who you might invite. Don’t sell God short on what He can do when someone prays expectantly – then ask that person.

In Him,

Mike W.

We are looking for a few volunteers for VBS. More specifically, we need crew leaders (they guide groups around to each station)

We also need people to help decorate the day before VBS ( Sunday August 4th). Please contact Tiffany or Tia Anderson if you are available.

Are you one of our awesome volunteers but perhaps forgot when you're scheduled to serve? Here is the June 2024 Volunteer Schedule.

Ladies -

On Saturday June 15th, in honor of Father’s Day, the ladies of First Christian will prepare & serve Men’s Breakfast for the guys of FCC. We’re looking for monetary donations and/or breakfast supplies. Please see Dottie at the Hospitality Desk for ways you can help. If you have questions, please call Dottie at 541-993-9669.

A HUGE thank you to all fifteen folks who helped prep and paint the church basement hallway in just two days to get it ready for a fresh look! Many hands made for light work – thank you, one and all!
