What a wonderful serivce we had today!
What a blessing to have our church family grow today with a new baptism and new member! We celebrate this milestore together with Lynn and Wayne and look forward to many more.
This was Pastor Kim's first baptism with FPC! We celebrated with music from the bell choir, performing "Jesus Loves Me," and “Thy Holy Wings" sung by the choir. We sang old and new hymns, “O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing,” "I Was There to Hear Your Borning Cry” and “Lord, I Want to Be a Christian."
"If ever there were a time for people to wake up and see that we are citizens of a whole city and state and nation, and more than that, citizens of God’s whole big world, isn't it now?
If ever there were a time for people to acknowledge that being members of a particular racial group DOES shape our experience of God and other people - AND that we are, ALL OF US, part of the whole human race under God, isn't this the time?
