This Wednesday, October 28, Faith Community Baptist Church will host our First Annual Trunk or Treat. Because of Covid-19 for your safety and everyone’s need for social distancing, we’ll host Trunk or Treat with a drive-through and all of our visitors will remain in their cars. Stop by for treats and goodies between 6:00 and…
The headline says it all. As I’m typing this, there are 84 active cases in our county. That’s about twice as many as there were just a few weeks ago. And overnight, President Trump and the First Lady tested positive. Please join me in praying for them. I’m as over this thing as anyone! I…
On Sunday, September 13 in our monthly business meeting, our church fellowship voted to uniquely with the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention (SBTC). What this means is that the SBTC will be our official partner for missions work in the great State of Texas. This also means that we will officially be affiliated with the…
With over 130 cases in Parker County (as of July 2, 2020), beginning Sunday, everyone must wear a face covering while at our church. Yes, Governor Abbot’s Executive Order lists an exception for worship, but we don’t need to take any chances. We want to treat other people the way we would want to be…
Our country is beginning to slowly reopen following the global Covid-19 pandemic. Although hundreds of thousands were affected and many died, thankfully, it wasn’t as bad as we were warned by healthcare leaders. I’m sure you’re aware that we briefly closed the church doors and moved our public ministry to Facebook Live. During the shutdown,…
I have fielded this question several times and I thought I’d answer it here to clear up any confusion. As I’m sure you’re aware, Governor Abbot has said that churches can begin meeting again in-person if certain criteria are met, including social-distancing, disinfection of the facilities between church services, etc. After attending a virtual meeting…
Beginning this week, we’ll add a new element to our Sunday Morning Facebook Live church service. I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag yet, but it’s an element that we’ve been sorely missing over the past month. I’ll share more later this week here and on our church’s Facebook page. Given…
I am grateful to God that as far as I’m aware, all of our church members are in good shape with regard to physical needs in this time of crisis. If I’m wrong in this, PLEASE let me know as soon as possible! Unfortunately, many in our community are not as fortunate as most of…
As everyone knows, because of the global coronavirus pandemic, we are unable to meet face-to-face in groups of more than ten. We have moved our Sunday Morning Messages to an online format on Facebook Live. If you haven’t already, please prepare your heart beforehand and then join us on Sunday Mornings at 11 on Facebook….
When Paul was “quarantined” by prison, his ministry didn’t stop. He simply shifted his strategy, methods, and tools. We’re doing the same thing right now at church: shifting our strategy, methods, and tools. We can’t use one of our tools (our building) right now. But Social Media, Zoom Meetings, and phone calls are still working…
