Outreach:
Block Party- Every August we host a Block Party. Games, music, a comedian, great food and wonderful fellowship have all become staples of a great night. Its our intention, through the Block Party, to begin and nurture relationships with our neighbors and friends from the community.
Habitat for Humanity- We have partnered with Habitat for Humanity in several different ways. Most recently volunteers from our church built a home for a young family in our community. For more information on Habitat for Humanity please Click Here to visit their website. To see a slideshow of photos from last year's Habitat For Humanity outreach visit our Missions Highlights page.
Help House- There is a wonderful organization in our community called "Help House." The Help House provides food for those in our town who have unique needs. We often supply help house with non-perishable food items as a way of caring for people in our community. For more information on Help House, please Click Here to visit their website.
Salt & Light Spotlight page: Every Month we will highlight different people from
FRC who actively participate in various community involvemens. To Check out
who is featured this month, please click here to visit our Salt & Light Spotlight Page!
Special Distribution Offerings Page- Every so often we will have a way for our church body
to get involved and "Reach Wider" through these special distribution offerings. Instead of our
regular offering, we invite people to physically bring up their offerings to the front of the sanctuary.
The offerings range from items to be sent over in military care packages, to filling up baby bottles
with loose change for the Pregnancy Care Clinic. Please Click here to see some photos from our past
special distribution offerings.
Missions:
Domistic Missions- Each summer a group from our congregation travels to some part of our country where volunteer labor is needed. The past two summers, a group has gone to Slidell, Louisana, a place still recovering from Hurricane Katrina. Please Click Here to see a brief slideshow showing some of the work that was done in Slidell.
Domestic Missions Support- We also financially support many local and domestic missions including:
World Wide Mission Support- We financially support a significant list of International missionaries and mission agencies who carry out the good work of the gospel in places all around the world.
International Mission Trip- Every Summer a group from our congregation travels to a part of our world that is in need of volunteer labor. Three years ago we traveled to Chipas, Mexico and the last two years have traveled to Ahuas, Honduras.
Independant Mission Couples- There are a wide variety of people from our congregation who embark on independant mission opportunities around the country and around the world and we often support those mission efforts financially.
