VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
At FPC we know the
joy that comes with serving others. Our
church has many opportunities for you to use the
gifts God has given you to care for those around
us. Whether you'd like to rock
babies in the nursery, or drive a bus to bring
folks to worship on Sunday morning, we have a
place for you. You can offer as little or
as much time as you like. Whatever you
decide to do, we are confident that God will
bless you and your service to His people.
