SUMMER WORSHIP SCHEDULE
Begins Sunday, June 7
9:30am Worship, 8:30am Forum
As the calendar turns through spring and towards summer, FLC is trying a new Sunday rhythm. At the suggestion of FLC members and the approval of Council, we will worship together at a single 9:30am worship service (with live stream) this summer. This will connect worshipers who often worship at different worship times, as well as allow time for fellowship & forum (e.g., Bible study) at 8:30am. This schedule will run from June 7 through August 30.
Set your calendars, and stay tuned for more details!
