“Fat Sunday” Events @ First
February 14 is the last Sunday before Lent, so we are having our Second “Fat Sunday” worship service with the Dixieland Jazz Band the Mouldy Figs. Laissez les bons temps rouler! (Let the good times roll!)
We will also celebrate FCC’s 133rd birthday on Sunday, Feb. 14, with worship in the Fellowship Hall followed by a potluck dinner honoring the people who have been members of our congregation for 50 years or more as well as the new members of our congregation. An entree, rolls and beverage will be provided for $5 per person or a maximum of $15 per family. Everyone is asked to bring his or her favorite vegetable, salad, or dessert to share. For those unable to bring food, a contribution of $8 per person is suggested. Reservations must be made by Noon on Monday, Feb. 8. Contact the church office at office@fccminneapolis.org to make reservations.
Finally, beginning on Fat Sunday and throughout Lent, First Christian will be showcasing the photography of our own Deb Murphy. Her works, “Thin Places, Sacred Spaces” were part of an installation at United Seminary last fall. Stop by after worship in the West Hall to look and stay tuned to how it will become a part of First’s Lenten Prayer Practice.
Please join us on February 14. All are welcome!
