We are excited about the possibility of

meeting again! However, it will take

time to work out the details of how we

are allowed to meet to keep everyone

safe. Pastor Toby and the deacons will

be meeting to discuss any addition

Jackson County Health Department

guidelines. Masks, gloves, social

distancing, number of persons per pew,

etc. will be addressed. Not all people

will be recommended to return while

the disease is still prevalent. We will be

sharing the plan and final guidelines as

soon as it is known. The services will

continue to be streamed on Facebook

and posted on our website. We are

taking time to assure national and state

guidelines as well as health department

recommendations are followed for your

safety. At this time, FBC has not set a

date to resume open services. We will

be reaching out to you soon.

If you have a need during this time,

please contact the office or your

deacon. Those who may have elderly

neighbors or family members,

remember to check on them.

Be aware that many of our local stores

will gather grocery/home items and

have them ready for pick to limit your

exposure during this time.

CommUnity Kitchen is cancelled until

further notice.
