Hanging of the Greens - Come help the Deaconess’ decorate our beautiful church for Christmas on Sunday Dec. 1 following our Worship service. All are welcome to participate!
Christmas Day Dinner – This year FBC will continue the tradition of offering a free Christmas Day dinner to our greater Red Bank Community. You can be a part of it in a number of ways. First, be an inviter! The dinner has played an important role to many in our area, especially the elderly, lonely, and individuals with special needs. Are there those in your neighborhood whom you could invite? We also seek your assistance to help us continue to offer a free bag of groceries to each guest. Many who come are in significant need. Food given in the spirit of Christ’s love is at the heart of what we are about. Please consider setting aside a can or box or tow (No glass, please) of non-perishable groceries. All items can be dropped off and put on the stage in Fellowship Hall (marked “Christmas Day Dinner”) up to Christmas day. Last, please help make the dinner a success! Volunteer forms are available on the Welcome desk and on the website. Simply check off where you would like to help and drop it in the offering boxes or give it to Pastor Russ! May the joy of service bless you richly!
Poinsettias - Each year FBC has beautiful poinsettias in our sanctuary. If you would like to order a poinsettia, there are forms on the Welcome desk or check your emails. Just fill out the form and  place it in the offering boxes or email the form to the church office fbcrboffice@gmail.com  Each Poinsettia is $15.00 each and are given in Memory of or Honor of a loved one. The Poinsettias will be given out to our Forget-Me-Nots.  **Poinsettias are grown by our own Rick Gallo**
