Sunday Songs - Are you interested in listening to the songs you sang at church on Sunday? You can! The songs will be listed here each week for you to look up and enjoy worship throughout the week:
- We Praise You - Bethel Music
- Great Are You Lord - All Sons & Daughters
- Graves Into Gardens - Brandon Lake & Elevation Worship
- Rest On Us - Maverick City Music and Upperroom

Faith Promise Giving - would you be interested in stepping out in faith to allow God to funnel monies through you to our missionaries? If so, begin praying for an amount you will watch God supply by faith. In October, you will have a chance to pledge that amount and anticipate over the next year how God will surprise you with unexpected money to offer to your Faith Promise. It's an exciting challenge to undertake a step of faith and exhilarating to see God provide! If you made a pledge for the 2024-2025 year, please submit all pledge money by October 31, 2025.

Discover Your Purpose 2 Class - all new! If you have been through the first Discover Your Purpose Class, then this sequel class is for you! DYP2 promotes a deeper connection with God by teaching rhythms to intentionally set our lives on Jesus. It's about spiritual transformation. As in DYP1, this class will be interactive and discussion-oriented but more meditative in nature. Supper and a free book are provided for each participant. Sign up here for the November 4, 6-8pm, class at 6629 SE 00 W, Jonesboro by by November 2 (limited space available).
Podcast Recommendation - Heaven Meets Earth - miracle stories. This podcast is uplifting and thought provoking as they deal with near death experiences, spiritual warfare, denominational differences, etc. It is supported by CBN and Museum of the Bible, and guests have been featured on Focus on the Family and other reputable organizations. Learn more here.

Fall Block Party - FWC partners with other local churches to host a community block party. This year, the party will be on Nov. 1, 4-6pm. If you're willing to volunteer (set up, clean up, games, etc), contact the office here. As well, we will need individually wrapped candy - if you can, bring bags of candy to the church office by October 26.

November 23 - FWC's Friendsgiving carry-in after church at Fairmount Camp dining hall
