The Two-Way Sermon Discussion is just that—an opportunity to discuss the past Sunday’s sermon with Pastor Matt. Pastor Matt provides his sermon manuscript for all to peruse as we talk about the parts that are most salient and meaningful for each of us. The last fifteen minutes is spent reading and discussing the scripture for the next Sunday’s sermon. Often, he uses Lectio Divina reading and questioning methods to facilitate this discussion. Open to all adults.

The 2-way Discussion Group meets in person in the Sojourners Room and virtually on Zoom on Sundays following worship at 12:30 p.m. The meeting time is occasionally rescheduled or cancelled to accommodate other after-church events such as fellowship meals and quarterly business meetings.

The Harvesters Mobile Food Pantry comes to FBC on the 4th Saturday of each month, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. (EXCEPTION: there may be alternate distribution dates during the months of November and December when the 4th Saturday falls on Thanksgiving weekend and Christmas weekend. In 2024, we’re having distributions in both months—on 11/23 and 12/28/24!)

The mobile food pantry is a drive-through distribution in the FBC parking lot.

Distribution will be limited to no more than 3 households per vehicle.

Guests, please clear as much space as possible in your trunk or cargo area. We would like to avoid loading inside the seats of the vehicles to better social distance. To the extent possible, limit the number of passengers with you. (We do understand some families must bring their children along.)

Blessings to you all from FBC and our mobile food pantry partners.

Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas, Trinity Interfaith Food Pantry, Pelathe District Boy Scouts, and First Baptist Church are partners in carrying out this distribution.

You can learn more about Harvesters on their website here. You can also visit this page on their site, where you can type your zip code into a food assistance service locator to see organizations in your area where you may receive assistance.

2025-01-28 18:30 - 19:30
Earthworks turns FIVE YEARS OLD on January 25! It’s hard to believe that 5 years have passed since that first celebration and sign-up in the Roger Williams Room!

5 years of recycling, reusing, and reducing!

5 years of hikes and runs and birdwatching adventures!

5 years of books and movies, learning about God’s creation!

5 years of singing about “My Father’s World” and “All Things Bright and Beautiful”!

5 years of eating sustainably and planting for pollinators!

Let’s celebrate together with some birthday cake, some new and exciting ideas, and an evening of planning. Whether you have always wanted to suggest an Earthworks event, would like to consider helping to lead in the new year, or just want to help brainstorm together, join us…

Tuesday night, January 28, at 6:30 in the Sojourners Room or on Zoom (but digital cake doesn’t have quite the same texture…) You can request the Zoom link here.

Happy Birthday, Earthworks!
