facWEEKLY July 25
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
The Parables of Jesus | The Parable of the Mustard Seed | Matthew 13:31–32, Mark 4:30–32, and Luke 13:18–19
In spite of the opposition we face, we are going to win! The kingdom is going to grow exponentially. That’s a promise from our Savior.
Bible Drive
Did you know believers outnumber Bibles 300 to 1, worldwide? Can you imagine sharing 1 Bible with 299 other people or never having access to God’s Word? The goal of Project Bible Runners is to collect 10,000 English Bibles every 3 months, and they need our help.
Would you consider joining FAC as we support the mission of Project Bible Runners by donating a Bible or two? Look through your bookshelves or stop by a thrift store or a garage sale. Bibles in any condition and any translation will gladly be accepted. When a faithful follower of Jesus is equipped with a Bible, he or she will then share the Good News with at least 10 people who will then surrender their life to Jesus!
This Sunday, July 27, is the deadline to drop your Bibles off at the table in the lobby.
Family Beach Day 2025
Date: Sunday, August 17
Time: 5pm
Place: at Presque Isle's Beach 11 pavilion
FAC family, we hope you're planning to join us on Sunday, August 17, at 5pm, for Family Beach Day at Presque Isle's Beach 11!
Our evening will begin at the pavilion with a time of worship, followed by powerful testimonies from those being baptized. From there we will walk to the beach for baptisms, so be sure to bring a lawn chair or blanket with you. We will then head back to the pavilion for a time of fellowship, activities, light refreshments (provided by FAC) and a short devotional.
If you are interested in being baptized, please email info@facerie.org AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. The deadline to register is August 3, but the sooner we hear from you, the better.
We have the Beach 11 pavilion reserved for the entire day, so feel free to take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy a picnic with your family after church or before we begin our time together that evening.
We look forward to celebrating summer with you!
Medical Response Team
Do you have a compassionate heart and medical training? We are looking to add qualified medical personnel to our volunteer Medical Response Team for Sunday mornings during the worship services. If you would like more information please contact Dr. Dave Beaton (mattbob3311@gmail.com) or Dr. Brandon Williams (brandonjw1215@gmail.com).
Adventures with Remember Nhu in Kenya
Date: Sunday, July 27
Time: 10:30–11am
Place: at the Global Missions table in the lobby
A team of four FACers recently went to Kenya to minister to our sponsored girls with Remember Nhu. They will be at the Global Missions table in the lobby between the morning services to tell you about the trip, show some pictures, and introduce you to the children who are lacking full sponsorship, if you would like to get involved.
Prayer for International Workers David & Evangeline Kindervatter in Japan
David and Evangeline Kindervater are international workers supported by FAC, serving in Tokyo, Japan. Many of you have prayed for K-san. Now that David and Evangeline are moving out of Tokyo, please continue to pray for him. Pray that God will put other believers in his life and lead him to salvation.
You can learn more about David and Evangeline 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 Evangeline in ministry by giving to the Great Commission Fund.
Do You Have a Prayer Request or Praise?
"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).
The staff and elders at FAC would love to pray for you. Send your request or praise to Pastor Scott through the form below.
