New to Fellowship?
We are so glad that you joined the Fellowship Family to worship this morning. If you are joining us for the first time or have been checking us out for a few weeks, we are excited you are here and would love to meet you. Please fill out the “Connect” section of your bulletin, tear it off, and bring it to the Connection Center in the Atrium, we would love to say “hi” and give you a gift.
Christmas offering
Please keep Fellowship in mind as you consider your end-of-the-year gifts. This year our Christmas Offering will be used to benefit the Ministry Center’s New Facility and support our Year of Missions in 2022 as we host all of our Missionaries here in Conway throughout the year.
Girlefriends Angel Tree
Each year The Christmas Boot Drive helps provide toys and food for families in need during Christmas in Faulkner and Perry County. Today, you have the opportunity to pick a tag off the tree in the Atrium and help a family with some of their Christmas presents. Please bring your unwrapped present(s) back by December 12, with the tag from the tree. Fellowship will also have the privilege of delivering the presents to the families. If you would like to help with wrapping gifts, shopping or delivering contact Charlie Bates at 870-403-4305.
