facWEEKLY May 15
We hope you've had a good week, FAC Family! Here are just some of the great things happening in the coming weeks.
Check out "What's Happening" for a full list of events taking place this quarter.
Worship This Sunday
In Power | Week 6: A Spirit-Filled Life | Acts 6:1–15; 7:54–60; 8:1 (NIV)
This Sunday, we’ll continue our In Power series by looking at Stephen’s life in Acts and what it means to live a Spirit-filled life fully yielded to Jesus. Together, we’ll see how the Holy Spirit forms surrendered servants, empowers bold witness, and sustains faithfulness even when obedience is costly. We hope to see you with us this Sunday!
Worship Note: Last Thursday was Ascension Day on the high church calendar. It commemorated the day that Jesus ascended into heaven following his great commission to the disciples, recorded in the gospels and Acts. You will notice that the white linen has been removed from the cross in our worship center to indicate the ascension of Jesus into heaven. Let us rejoice at both the resurrection of Jesus and the glory of His reign at the right hand of the Father! Amen.
Women 2 Women Bible Study
Date: Tuesdays
Time: 9:30–11:30am
Place: in Room B106
Join us for our women’s Bible study: Miracles of Jesus.
This is a standalone study; you can jump into it at any time. No book to buy and no homework to do. Through engaging video teaching from respected scholars and professionals, we’ll explore six well-known miracles of Jesus and discover how each one reveals God’s character, the Kingdom of God, and His deep love for you.
We would love to have you join us!
Women’s Thursday Afternoon Bible Study
Date: Thursdays (will continue throughout the summer)
Time: 1–3pm
Place: in Room F201
Join us for a weekly Bible study for women of all ages.
This is a discussion-based study for women who are eager to grow deeper in their understanding of Scripture and engage thoughtfully with God’s Word alongside others. Together, we’ll explore the Bible through meaningful conversation, study, and encouragement.
Whether you’ve been studying the Bible for years or are simply ready to go deeper, we would love for you to join us.

Prayer for International Workers David and Brenda Aderholdt, Macedonia
David and Brenda Aderholdt are international workers supported by FAC. They serve the Macedonian community. While they prayed and waited for the rent to decrease, someone else rented the place they wanted to lease. Pray with them for another place and for God’s leading and His timing!
You can learn more about David and Brenda by picking up a copy of our “Prayer Guide for World Missions” at the Missions Table near the entrance of the Worship Center. You can partner with David and Brenda in ministry by giving to the FAC Missions Fund.

“Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere” (Ephesians 6:18, NLT).
