What’s Happening @ Friendship?

This week we will hear the third sermon in our Ancient Pathways series.   We hope to see you this Sunday at 9:00 and 10:45 as we Gather to Worship.  We realize that some of you may be unable to attend in person. If that's you, we encourage you to watch the service online at 10:45 AM on our website, the YouTube channel, or Facebook page. If you'd like to listen to recent sermons in podcast form, you now can find our Friendship Sermon Podcast on your favorite podcast platform. As always, you can worship God through Friendship by giving on our secure giving page online.

 Take a moment to check out the announcements to see what's going on at Friendship.

Baptism

Believers’ baptism is an important step in the life of a believer, as they publicly acknowledge Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, they are forgiven as a follower of Christ, that they are washed from their sins and walk in the newness of life.   Our next baptism will be on Sunday, February 2nd.  If you are interested in learning more about baptism or would like to be baptized, email the church at  fcbc@fcbc.church
