BIBLE QUIZZING
Are you wanting to study the Bible as a family? Consider Bible Quizzing! It's a fun, interactive way to grow in grace and knowledge. Study together and then cheer on or coach your student's quiz team as they quiz kids from other churches/schools. For students K-12. This year Bible Quizzing is studying Matthew 1-16 and the book of Jonah. If you’re interested in joining Bible Quizzing, please email Shari Deardorff.
FBC ladies mingle
Once each season, women of all ages gather for a night to connect, laugh, and be encouraged. It’s a chance to catch up with old friends, meet someone new, and enjoy an evening that’s all about community. Every event includes something special—whether it’s a guest speaker, fun entertainment, or both. Bring a friend (or two!) and come be part of a night set aside just for women to share life together.

Deaf Ministry
This ministry provides ASL interpretation during our 10:00 am service each week. Seating for those utilizing interpretation is reserved in the first two rows on the left side of the Worship Center. It's a huge blessing to have the lyrics to our worship songs and weekly sermon interpreted for those in our congregation who are deaf or hard of hearing.
WOODLAND TRAILS summer PREDICTION RUNS
Located on FBC’s Woodland Trails, the Summer Prediction Runs include weekly 3K and 5K races on Thursday evenings at 6:30 pm. Runners predict the time they believe it will take them to complete either the 3K or 5K race, and the winners are determined by how close participants come to their predicted time! Check back here next summer for more information!
