The biggest thing that I love about FPC is the community and fellowship. You get to interact and have so much fun with people from ages 4 to 104. I love our community because everyone is always smiling and has the best welcoming embrace. We celebrate God’s son Jesus by practicing what he teaches, love. The FPC community is full of love. And I don’t think that will ever change.
