Security at FPC: As our security implementation has progressed, we could still use some volunteer security people on our teams. This would require about 1 1/2 hours per month during Sunday mornings. If you’d like more information, please contact Coordinator John Muslovski at jpmuslovski@gmail.com or Jeff at pastorjeffarnold@gmail.com. ‍ ‍

9 AM Overflow Worship: Each Sunday, at our 9 AM Fellowship Hall service, we have overflow in our Commons. We’re looking for servant-hearted individuals/families who will voluntarily sign up, one Sunday per month. This helps create ample seating so we can continue to welcome newcomers into our Fellowship Hall Service each week. If you’re willing, go to fpcbeaver.com/events, Overflow Worship to sign up for a particular Sunday. If you’re running late and notice limited space, just head over to the Commons!
