Announcements for FBCG
Pastor + Staff Appreciation Month
During the month of October the Staff Relations Board
will be collecting a monetary “love offering” for Pastor Carl, Pastor Sean, Pastor Matt, and Kathy Negro, our church administrator.
This will be one small way that the church body can honor
our staff for the past year’s dedicated work. If you would like to participate, please give your cash
donations to Tom Mohler, Marty Tuckey, Van Weber or Laura Meals. If writing a check, the “pay to the order” MUST be the name of the person to whom the gift is given.
Also cards, gift cards, notes of appreciation, ‘goodies’, or
even a meal would be ways to bless our staff!
Let’s show our pastors and staff how much they are
appreciated!
