We’ll light everyone’s candles (battery-powered candles for kids who’ve joined us in the service, of course!) and sing together to King Jesus!

It’s Christmas Eve, so make plans to arrive with plenty of time to park, get inside, check in kids if needed, grab some coffee, and find your seat.
We expect parking to be at a premium! If you’re a guest, please utilize the main church lots. Regular attenders and members, consider dropping off your family and parking at the plaza to the east, Advanced Plating or Veridian to the west, or utilizing street parking.
To help with fitting as many people into our services as possible, our ushers will be seating you as you enter the Worship Center.
We expect the 3pm and and 4:30pm services to be the most full. If you have flexibility in your schedule that day, consider attending the 6pm service to free up space in the other services.
We have a vibrant Deaf community at FFC! They will be attending the 3pm service and will be seated in the front of middle left section.
It’s not too late to extend an invitation to someone who needs Jesus and may be more open to an invite during the Christmas season. If you need more invites, just stop by the church office!
