COVID Conscious Worship during our 9:30 Worship Experience!
Hey Church!

This special announcement is for everyone who has struggled with the decision of whether or not to return to regular worship on Sunday mornings because of preexisting health conditions. Beginning this Sunday, October 18, FSBC will be offering a “COVID Conscious” worship experience for those among us requiring heightened precautions. This worship experience will require everyone attending to submit to a temperature check, wear a mask, social distance, and sanitize before entering and exiting the room. This worship experience will take place in room 209 with a live stream of our 9:30am worship service. Room 209 is just inside our 7th street building entrance with a bathroom nearby for added convenience. This room will be used exclusively for the purpose of our COVID Conscious worship experience and will undergo deep cleaning/sanitizing each week in preparation for your attendance. If you have any questions or concerns about this opportunity, please contact our church office.
All church members, don’t forget to fill out your deacon nomination ballot and get it back to the church by Friday, October 30.  There is a box in the office to put these ballots into.  If you should have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact any of the deacons.

Each year during the months of September and October we take up a special offering. The Viola Webb Missions Offering is split between the Kansas-Nebraska Convention of Southern Baptists (KNCSB) and the Western Kansas Baptist Association (WKBA). These two entities work together with our church and other churches to minister to Christians, pastors, and churches in our two states as well as reaching those who do not yet know Jesus Christ as Savior. 

When you give to the Viola Webb offering, you are giving to help: 

  • Provide training for pastors and lay-leaders in our churches.

  • Plant new churches.

  • Strengthen existing churches.

  • Send missionaries to North America and International mission opportunities. 

  • and much more

For more information about how KNCSB and WKBA minister to our area and state, please click the link below to find a fact sheet from KNCSB as well as some videos from both groups!
