 WORSHIP AT FPC

Dear FPC Family,

We have kicked off our new fall series: Courageous Faith in Turbulent Times: The Book of Daniel.

What a powerful story Daniel is—packed with mystery, political drama, dreams, and daring faith. In a world that often feels turbulent and uncertain, this ancient story speaks directly into our lives. If you haven’t yet, I still encourage you to carve out some time to read the whole book of Daniel—it’s just 12 chapters long, and it will deepen our journey together.

As the leaves begin to hint at their changing colors and the air starts to feel just a bit crisper, I hope you’re finding small moments to pause, breathe deeply, and notice God’s presence in this shifting season.

This Sunday, we continue our series, Courageous Faith in Turbulent Times, with a powerful story from Daniel chapter 3. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego face the fiery furnace—but not alone. This is a story about civil courage, spiritual conviction, and the God who meets us in the fire. You won’t want to miss it.

Peace and every good thing,

Pastor Taeler
