2023-03-31 07:00 - 19:00 | Online
We are celebrating our trans and gender-expansive siblings — God’s beloved creation — and we are bringing to light the discrimination and violence the community faces. We will shine our lights and work for trans justice every day.

On Friday, March 31, join Disciples Alliance Q for the day, for several hours, or for an hour. We will conclude our vigil by joining in worship with the Transmission Ministry Collective (TMC).
-At 8 a.m. Eastern: TDOV opening celebration
-On the hour every hour: a prayer or blessing from the host (FCC is hosting 8 AM – 9 AM central time)
-During the hour: connection, fellowship, conversation, and resources for taking action in our faith communities and places of residence
-At noon Eastern: presentation about gender diversity in scripture and Christian history with special guest Austen Hartke, author of Transforming: The Bible and Lives of the Lives of Transgender Christians and founder of Transmission Ministry Collective (TMC)
-At 8 p.m. Eastern: worship with Transmission Ministry Collective

CXLD DUE TO WEATHER: Lenten Mission Project: Bagels, Books, and Blankets
2023-04-01 09:00 - 13:00
Join your fellow church goers in a morning of fun, fellowship, food, and fabulous good deeds!
Bagels: Bagels and toppings will be available for your breakfast. And coffee, too, of course!
Books: We will be collecting books to give to People Serving People. The shelter would appreciate books for people of all ages, infants through seniors. The books can be new or gently used—meaning no rips, tears, writing, or stains. (We are asked to not give any books that are political or religious.) Go wild in your favorite independent bookstore!
Blankets: New blankets are welcome. They can be twin, full, or queen size. Thick and warm blankets are needed but any are welcome.
Building sandwiches: Our activity for after breakfast will be making 200-300 sandwiches to be delivered to Groveland Food Shelf on April 4. Many hands make light work! If you cannot attend the Saturday gathering but wish to donate book or blankets, you can bring them to church and leave them in front of the altar in the North Sanctuary.

Activity for children (and those who are children at heart!): Peeps dioramas! Materials will be available to do Peeps dioramas! Bring your creativity!

the stable
2023-04-04 19:00 - 20:00, 2023-04-11 19:00 - 20:00 | Online
Rev. Jia Starr Brown (one of our members) invites us to join her Tuesday evenings at 7:00 pm online for “the stable”
The Church, in its current form, isn’t working.
Edison defined “insanity” very well…change is needed.
“the stable” (lowercase intentional) is a Christian-centered gathering community with NO money expectations, fancy veneer, agendas, or ambiguity. NO power trips, privilege, and programs over PEOPLE…
…just Jesus and us broken humans coming together for some truth-telling preaching (from the fringes!0 and teaching, all in about an hour…on a Tuesday.
And, NO membership required. Both Pastors and their parishioners can tune in on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 pm to hear a preached sermon (sermon prep, perhaps?) using the Scripture from the Lectionary for the upcoming Sunday.
