FCC WEEKLY DEVOTIONALS
As a way to tend the soil and tend the soul of our beloved community, members of our church are writing weekly devotionals that accompany the lectionary text for the week. The devotionals are a way to reflect on the text, deepen our spiritual lives and pray our ways into the end of the week. May we be blessed by these writers as we “seek to embrace the mystery of God”.
