F3 (Family Fun & Fellowship)
F3 (Family Fun & Fellowship)
A variety of fun multi-generational activities mixed-in with a Christian message are provided (usually monthly). Efforts are made to reach out to the community through a variety of ads and fliers distributed to local elementary schools. Congregational members are encouraged to attend and bring their friends and family. There are many opportunities for members to help plan and organize an event using their individual talents and interests.
