“Grace to you, and peace from God!”
These are the words that the Apostle Paul used to address the Christian church in Corinth, words that spoke of his affection for that community and a confession of where their true strength might be found: the God we know in Jesus Christ.
As we move together beyond the pandemic, we invite everyone to join in our community of faith, to gather to worship God, engage in fellowship, and serve his people. Whether on Sunday mornings or beyond, we encourage you to reach out to us and to one another, in person or by phone or email.
All visitors to FCC are strongly encouraged to wear masks indoors; vaccination against covid-19 is highly recommended, but not required. We continue to be cautious about all on-site events here, and if you have questions about a particular event, please contact the church office by email or phone (603-448-4281). We thank you for your cooperation with these basic precautions.
