November 2 is the date that Daylight Saving Time ends. Don't forget to set your clocks back one hour Saturday night before you go to sleep, or else you will be an hour early for church!

Pastor Tibbs' sermon for October 12 is titled The Resurrection Difference. It is based on 1 Corinthians 15: 12-20. 12 Now if Christ is preached, that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised; 14 and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain, your faith also is in vain. 15 Moreover, we are even found to be false w

Pastor Tibbs' sermon for October 12 is titled The Resurrection Documented.

The next rummage sale at FCC has been postponed from October to November. It will be held on Friday November 7 and Saturday November 8th from 9AM to 4PM each day. That gives us plenty of time to assemble a great variety of things to sell! A rummage sale benefits everyone in several ways. 1.

In 1920, the FCC congregation secured a lot on Kentucky Street for a much larger church. The building committee consisted of H. E. Everman, Mrs. J. A. Gilliam, James T. Nelson, and S. L. Wilburn. They were joined by pastor A. W. Rethemeyer when he began leading the church in 1922.
