Pastor's Message
Next to the west-side of our church lies a
spiritual illustration of what is to come for FFCPC. There
is a community garden that was initiated by a couple of
men from FFCPC. The garden is blossoming, producing
vegetables and fruit aplenty, plus fostering a special
fellowship through the workers. God revealed this
imagery a few days ago while praying. Then, came
another prayer insight by email that gave me even more
encouragement and I pray it does you too!
Read as if God is speaking to you: "I want to
enlarge the place of your spiritual tent. I want your life in
the Spirit to spread out wider, longer, deeper. My desire
is for you to remove old religious boundaries to make for
a more expansive life in the Spirit, says the Lord. There
is more for you to know and to do in My Kingdom.
Expansion requires effort, but you will be able to fulfill
My desires for you. Isaiah 54:2" Prepare for God's
harvest is coming. There Is a Mighty Spirit crossing
barren land. He's sowing love unceasing. Fresh fruit
springing from the sand.
Christ in Every Heart, Pastor Greg
Sunday Message: From the Brink of Disaster, Psalm 77

Treasurer's Report June is getting off to a slow start on our tithes and

Please Pray about our finances at church and keep up
your generous giving.
God Bless
Have a great week

Gideons Card Ministry The Gideons International, founded in 1899
in Wisconsin, is an association of Christian
business and professional men and their
wives dedicated to telling people about
Jesus through sharing personally and by
providing Bibles and New
Testaments. While they are known
worldwide for their work with hotels, they

FISH Pantry Collections
We are continuing to collect toiletries for the West Knox
Food Pantry (FISH) on an ongoing basis. We have a
container in the Narthex to collect these and will take
them every month or so to the pantry when it is our turn
to deliver for FISH.
Kroger Community Rewards The Kroger Community Rewards program is helping us
raise money for the Faith Fellowship CPWM. It is an
easy way to support our church and the CPWM. Simply
enroll your Kroger Card in the program, following the
link below. https://www.kroger.com/communityrewards
One misconception is that if you sign up for the
Community Rewards Program, you won't get your fuel
points. This is NOT true! You will be able to do both!
predominately share Scriptures in schools
and colleges, prisons and jails, hospitals,
and medical offices.
The Gideons have a card ministry that we
would like to share with our church. You
may donate Bibles in someone's name
through this ministry. They have a wide
range of cards including sympathy, get well,
thank you, in memory, pastor appreciation,
birthday, recognition, and
encouragement. We have placed a card rack
on the wall across from the large Sunday
School classroom at the west entrance to our
church. To donate Bibles to honor someone
special, all you have to do is choose a card,
personalize the card by filling out the
blanks, add your message and send the
card. To donate Bibles, just complete the
orange donation envelope inside the card
and mail it to The Gideons International
address on the front of the envelope.
Each $5 donation places a Bible in the
hands of a person who needs one anywhere
around the world.
FFCPC's Constant Contact Updates are communications to the congregation of the church to inform them of upcoming ministry, mission, and worship opportunities. If you have information that you want to communicate to the church, send an email with the information to [email protected]
Flowers for the Altar
If you would like to provide flowers for the altar in
memory or in honor of someone, please contact the
office at (865) 988-8522 to let us know.
Donate Your Eyeglasses!! Do you have a few pair of old eyeglasses just sitting in a
drawer, taking up space? Why don't you donate them at
church. We have a collection box in the Narthex. When
the box is full, we donate those to the Farragut Lions
Club. These glasses are taken to a recycle center and
then the recycled glasses are distributed to people in need
in low and middle income communities where they will
have the greatest impact. If you have any questions,
please contact Frances Poore at (865) 599-0083 or
