GivePlease take this opportunity to review the many ways you can provide for your church and your community. We welcome your gifts of time, talent and financial support.

Support MissionsPurchase Giant Eagle grocery gift cards or enroll in the Kroger Rewards program. Visit the Mission page at FCchurch.com or visit the tables after worship.

Prison Ministry VisitorsWe need volunteers for our Death Row Ministry of Presence. No special talent required. The men we see are just longing for human companionship. They have few or no visitors from the outside and cherish a “normal” conversation from time to time. Imagine catching up over coffee with a friend you haven’t seen for a while. That’s what our visits are like. If interested, please contact Tom White at [email protected]

Calling All GardenersShare your garden’s bountiful harvest at the First Community Church Farmer’s Market to be held Sunday, August 24 at North Campus. All proceeds go to support missions. For more information call Bruce Crouthamel at 614 777.0714
