Anyone seen the Buffalo Wild Wings commercial where they hit the TV remote to slow mo?  They do that because they love hanging out at their favorite restaurant and watching sports.  I prayed this prayer over our beloved FCC staff this morning.  In the busyness and all that needs to get done for Holy Week, I'm asking Jesus to hit the slow mo enough for us all to experience and worship him.  I'm asking Jesus to meet us, fill us, and use us so anyone coming through the doors of FCC would want to make this a favorite hangout!

There's a lot of excitement and energy on Wednesday nights here at FCC.  One personal piece I'm excited to add to Wednesdays is a class I will be facilitating called "Solid Roots".  This will be a basic Spiritual Formation class focused on sharing some best practices to truly grow in our faith.  We will use a creative approach to discipleship aimed at discovering how God has uniquely wired us and calls us to be rooted and grow in faith.

May we all hit the slow mo and experience great things from God: Easter, and beyond!

Pastor John Foley

Seder Dinner
Join us on Good Friday at 5pm as we worship through the sampling of the traditional Passover meal.
