BACK TO SCHOOL MILESTONE
Summer is here, but fall is coming! As school approaches, so do big changes for students beginning Kindergarten, Middle School, or High School. We believe that God is, and will be, present in all our life's transitions. So, we're highlighting and blessing these milestones for our students!
On Wednesday, August 20th, we'll celebrate going "Back to School" with milestones events for new Kindergarteners, 6th, and 9th graders. Panels of students, parents, and teachers will answer questions and encourage students and parents as they enter K, 6th, or 9th grade. 
Kindergarteners and families will meet at 4pm, and Middle and High School panels will begin at 6pm. Supper is provided! (See the Community Corn Roast announcement for the same day! All are welcome.) 


FLC CORN ROAST
Community Corn Roast – Wednesday, August 20

4:00pm - 7:00pm
Celebrate the last days of summer with us at our Community Corn Roast! We’ll have fresh corn, brats, hot dogs, and other tasty treats.
It’s sure to be a fun evening as we gear up for another school year!
If you can help in any way, please contact Pastor Jeff at bpjeffbarrow@gmail.com.
