May, 2015
A bigger house, nicer car, better vacations. Wanting more isn't always bad,
but are we looking for satisfaction in the wrong places?
Most of us don't think we are rich. We think that since we worry about
paying bills, and wonder how we'll pay for large expenses that we're not
wealthy; we're only average. We say to ourselves, "If I had just a little bit
more, then I'd feel less anxious about my situation." However, the reality is
that even millionaires worry, and wish for more. There's no end to "having
enough." What we need is a shift in our perception about wealth.
It's not about how much you have, it's about what you do with what you have. Exploring 1 Timothy 6:8, "Command
them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share." We just need to get back to good
ole generosity. Just like the early believers in Jesus were known for radical generosity long ago, we too have the ability
to demonstrate the love of Christ in how and where we share our abundance with a world who will definitely take
notice. Join Brian, David and Darryll as they help lead us to What Matters Most, beginning Sunday, May 10th.
A “Book of the Month” in May @ FCC:
Take God At His Word
You are challenged to join us in reading one chapter a week in Dr. Kregg Hood’s informative and insightful booklet,
Take God At His Word. Whether yours is a “household” of one or a crowd of a dozen, every FCC Christ follower will
benefit from uniting in the congregational reading. Each chapter will complement the preaching series that Brian will
launch on Sunday, May 10th, titled Being Rich in What Matters Most.
In addition to reading Take God At His Word at home, some of our small groups are choosing to discuss it in their
gatherings as well. Great idea! Let Dr. Hood plant God’s garden of “Ps” to grow in your life --- God’s principles, plans,
priorities and promises.
The books will be distributed in the morning worship services on Sunday, May 10th, as Brian begins the message
series. Be sure to pick up the copy for your household!

#Empty2overflowing
I hope during this sermon series we have realized that
this world can really suck us dry like a sponge. It’s like
when we’re cut off from Christ or his body, we’re one
little drop of water disconnected from the source and the
thirsty sponge is crying out for someone to quench it’s
thirst and it takes what we have quick. If we don’t get
For students in 7th—12th grades
back to the source we wind up chapped, dried out like we
haven’t had anything to drink in what seems like ages.
But what refreshment comes when we turn back to God. This world can make us parched very quickly, if we don’t
stay connected to the source we pass out unable to see or be aware of the living water that has been freely given.
Don’t dry out, don’t pass out, stay connected to the source. Summer will bring family trips, band camps, athletic
conditioning, opportunities to waste away inside because you don’t have anywhere to be...stay connected to the
source. Life will still happen: deadlines at work, responsibilities at home, friends pulling you one way when you
desire to go another, your phone crying out to be answered...stay connected to the source. God can actually use all
of these moments and turn them to refreshment if we stay connected to Him.
Braze & Invasion
Jr. High to the Zoo
We are continuing with our “regularly scheduled
programming” this month, meeting on Sunday evenings
at 6:00 for Braze. Then on Wednesday evenings we will
be meeting again for Invasion as well, and remember
Invasion meets at 7:00.
On Saturday, May 16, we will be going to the Cincinnati
Zoo with our Jr High. We will meet at 10:00 AM and the
cost is $12 a person! Bring some money for lunch.
Please come and hang out with us!
S.N.A.C. Night
On Saturday, May 30th we will take a group out to camp
for a meeting for camp leadership this summer. We are
doing this so that all the leaders are on the same page in
what each camp is wanting to accomplish this summer.
The meeting will be led by Brian Schreiber. We will leave
at 8:00 in the morning because the meeting starts at
9:00. Come get on the same page with the rest of the
crew.
Come hang out with us after church on Sunday night
and share in some food and fellowship! After your Braze
groups get out on Sunday, May 3rd, we will meet in the
downstairs youth center and eat. Come share time with
us. That night our official end time will be 8:30.
Refreshed: A Senior High Solitude Retreat
Life is crazy! Tests, papers, more tests, more papers,
relationships: family, friends, significant others, sports,
church, phones, computers, tablets, Netflix, work,
Papers, Tests . . . . . ahhhhh!!! And the list just keeps
growing. There are a lot of things that get in our way of
spending time with God. This retreat will be specifically
created for you to have time with our Lord and Creator.
We will go out and spend some time at King’s Domain.
There will be time for reflection, prayer, hiking, taking in
all the sights, smells, tastes, and words God has for us.
Make sure you bring a Bible and sleeping stuff. Maybe
even stuff for a shower. This is one retreat that we’ll
silence and turn off our cell phones for. We’ll leave at
5:00 PM on Friday, May 8th and get back by 7:00 PM on
Saturday, May 9th. This retreat will cost $20.
Braze Supports the Up and Coming!
On Sunday, May 17, instead of meeting regularly we will
have the pleasure of joining the rest of our church
family to take in the sights and sounds of the world
famous children’s choir—The SONSHINE Gang! They will
be performing their rendition of “Back to the Cross”
starring some of your favorite Kidopolis residents.
Come for their performance at 6:00 and you will be
taken aback by this esteemed children’s choir!
Calling all Camp Counselors!
WE WANT YOU!
On Sunday, May 31st we will also have a brief
informational meeting about how you can get involved
youth ministry if you are interested. This meeting will be
for various levels of commitment. So if you think, “I’d
love to but I don’t have the time to commit.” Don’t
worry, this meeting is for you too. The meeting will be in
the Chapel after 2nd service dismisses. Come check us
out!
Graduate Sunday!
Graduate Sunday is May 31st! Get your pictures in by
Sunday, May 17th, so we can get you on the screen and
in the UpLink. This is for high school and college
graduates. We will honor graduates this day with a
special presentation in both services. This is also when
our students will advance on to their next Sunday school
class, keeping in step with their grade in school.

Trail Life would like to thank all those
who donated 2-liter bottles for our
rocket race. Special thanks go to Aaron
and
the
students
for
their
contribution. The Trailmen had lots of
fun launching their rockets up to 100
feet across the church parking lot.
We have a lot of exciting activities
coming up in May. We are scheduled for two separate
campouts next month. We will also be honoring those
that gave their lives for our country this Memorial Day
by placing flags at Crown Hill Memorial Park and
marching in Fairfield’s Memorial Day parade. Trail Life is
also teaming up with the men’s group for a cleanup day
at Woodland Lakes Camp on May 23rd.
Finally we invite you to stop by CVS at the corner of
Nilles and Pleasant on Saturday, May 9th for a free car
wash from 9:00 AM to noon. Donations from the car
wash will be used to help fund the troop this coming
year.

A “Get Acquainted Step” for Newcomers & Inquirers

while but still feel like you need some orientation. Perhaps
you’re a newcomer and want to meet the leadership team

to acquaint folks with the main mission of the church. It

 Shows highlights of the programs here.
 Reveals the core Biblical beliefs that shape our
faith and practice.

to know about church, but it is a good place to begin. Our
Pastor/Teacher, David Hargrave, facilitates this special
program.

beginning May 3. Or you may RSVP to the church office,

SHOES FOR H.O.P.E. OUTREACH
During the month of May 2015, we’re asking you to Collect and Donate shoes to benefit
those without shoes around the world.
Your generous donation of new and used shoes can prevent the hardship and lifethreatening symptoms caused by parasitic infection and soil transmitted helminths.
Approximately two billion people worldwide suffer with parasitic diseases that could be
prevented by wearing shoes. People die every day from these diseases.
Here are the shoes we want:
 Shoes that you do not want or do not wear any more
 Shoes that have the heel broken off
 Shoes that do not have a match to them
 All shapes and sizes - Baby, infant, toddler, child, teen, adults shoes and boots
 Boots, flip-flops, sandals, tennis shoes, dress shoes, hiking shoes, cleats, etc.
 Shoes in any condition
 Broken shoes, Dirty shoes, Scuffed shoes, Used and new shoes
The average women owns about 17 pairs of shoes
The average woman wears 3 pairs of shoes regularly; the rest sit in her closet
Over 300 million children do not have shoes to wear
How many shoes will you collect or donate?
A child, a family, a village, and a nation need your shoes.
We look forward to hearing from you soon and collecting your unwanted shoes.
