African Children’s Choir

Saturday, November 7, 7:00-9:00pm

We’re excited to welcome the African Children’s Choir to our church for Global Impact Weekend! Through joyful music, vibrant performances, and inspiring stories, these talented children will help us celebrate the beauty of God’s global family and the impact of people coming together across cultures. The choir is a part of a larger international organization called Music for Life, which provides thousands of impoverished children throughout Africa with education, discipleship, and leadership skills.

Here, There, and Everywhere Offering

Sunday, November 15

As a part of our stewardship rhythms, we take a special offering during the Thanksgiving season known as the Here, There, and Everywhere Offering. This offering is above our regular tithes and offerings and is used for very specific initiatives. More details on these initiatives will be coming soon.

We urge everyone at FAC to take some time to prayerfully consider what the Lord would have them give. We’ll be presenting our offerings to the Lord during services by coming forward. This is always a special time!

The online fund will be open until January 5, 2027.

A Look Ahead

Joy to the World: Women’s Ministry Christmas Event

Thursday, December 3, 6:30-9:00pm
Friday, December 4, 6:30-9:00pm

We are back with two nights of our wonderful Christmas event! This year’s theme is Joy to the World. Both nights will be identical, so choose the one that is best for you!

Join us for dessert as we share an evening of carols, fun, giveaways, and encouraging stories from a few of our own FAC women.

This is a great opportunity to invite your friends, neighbors, and coworkers to experience the joy of the season with you as we center on the hope we can find even when our circumstances may not feel joyful.

Registration is required due to event style. Each night will have spots for 250 ladies. Doors will open at 6:30pm for drinks in the Atrium, and the program will be from 7:00-9:00pm in the Sanctuary. We hope to see you there!
