Book of James:
A Practical Letter for Today

Sundays February 22-March 29 9:45am in the Sanctuary

For many followers of Jesus, the epistle of James offers helpful, practical instructions on how to live faithfully. Over the six weeks of Lent, we will explore this fascinating letter and discover the gift and challenge of this book. Leading this series will be Dr. Martha Moore-Keish, the J.B. Green Professor of Theology at Columbia Theological Seminary, and our own Rev. Dr. Mark Durrett. This series is based on Dr. Moore-Keish’s recently published commentary on James. Join us Sundays at 9:45am in the Sanctuary, starting February 22.

March 30 – April 3
Time TBD

Devotional in the Sanctuary, followed by lunch (suggested donation: $5/day)

Join us each day for a brief devotional led by a local pastor, followed by a soup and sandwich lunch. This beloved tradition brings our community together in worship and fellowship during this holy season.

Volunteers Needed
Sign ups will take place in the Gathering Space on Sunday, February 22, March 1 & March 8, between 9:30-10:00 and 10:30-11:00. We are looking for folks to greet our guests, help serve lunch, and all manner of fun things.

Maundy Thursday – April 2 | 7pm in the Sanctuary

In this service, we remember how Jesus, at table with his disciples, took the bread and the cup and issued this mandate: “Do this in remembrance of me.” Communion will be served.

April 3 | 7pm in the Sanctuary

Good Friday is the day we remember Jesus’ crucifixion. The Good Friday service is a penitential service, yet it is also a celebration of the good news of the cross.

The Chancel Choir and members of the Georgia Symphony will present David H. Pettit’s “Good Friday,” using the text from Matthew’s portrayal of Jesus’ private trial and public execution. The tonal and harmonic colors are dark, angry, and jarring. FPC will be the home for the “Good Friday” world premiere.

Mr. Pettit is also creating a piece for FPC based on the hymn, “I Greet Thee Who My Sure Redeemer Art,” in honor and memory of our beloved singer, ringer, wife, mother, and grandmother, Barb Steele. This piece will include the congregation, bells, brass, Chancel Choir and our new Allen organ. Be sure to come worship with us at this year’s Good Friday service, April 3, at 7 pm. On Good Friday, we are reminded that when the world was at its worst, God was at his best.
