BREAKING NEWS

🚀 MISSION CRITICAL 🚀 FRC Students are preparing for lift-off to Indianapolis for a mission trip this July in partnership with Lead 222—and this is no ordinary trip. They’re heading straight into the heart of the inner city, where they’ll be tackling hands-on housing projects like drywalling, painting, demolition, and they’ll be running a VBS for 250 kids! Think: tools, sweat, teamwork, and transformation. 💪 But even the best crews need Mission Control—and that’s where you come in. Here’s how you can help fuel this mission:

🟡 May’s Special Offering – All systems go for giving this month!
👕 FRC x 175th Apparel Fundraiser – Grab some gear and support the team! Click HERE.
🙏 Prayer Support – Every launch needs a strong prayer orbit.

This is a big deal. Real impact. Real growth. Real opportunity. Thanks for being part of the crew that helps make it all happen.

🚫🐰 No HOP, But Plenty of Praise! 🎶HOP is taking a break today because our awesome Helpers are with the Uth crew, bringing the energy to worship! Catch you next time—today, we worship all together! 🙏

☀️ No Adult Sunday School Today! ☀️Pastor Bob is out of town, soaking up some sunshine, family time, and—let’s be honest—grandchild cuddles (his top priority, obviously). So no class today… but feel free to grab a coffee, chat with someone new, and enjoy the fellowship.

Shine His Light, Serve with Love ☀️💛 We’re called to be the hands and feet of Jesus — and this spring, the REACH Team invites you to join us in doing just that. 🌿 Spring Clean-Up Day is happening Saturday, May 17, 8 AM–Noon, and we’re stepping out in faith to serve our neighbors in need. 💌 Before we grab the rakes, we need your help: Who needs a blessing? A weary caregiver, someone healing, or just a family in need of a little extra assistance? 📅 Share names with the church office or Welcome Center by April 30. Let’s love boldly, serve humbly, and bring Christ’s light to every doorstep. ✨🙏

🎉 Last Call for Sunday School! 🎉 It’s the final week of Sunday School for the school year—can you believe it? Huge shoutout to our amazing teachers and leaders who’ve been absolute rockstars all year long. 🙌 You’ve shown up, poured in, and walked alongside our kids as they grew in faith (and probably energy levels). Thank you for making a big difference in little lives. We’re so grateful for you!

🎉 Usher Call: All Hands on Deck! 🎉 Hey ya’ all! Guys, gals, teens, young adults, brothers, sisters, introverts, extroverts… if you love Jesus and can smile, you qualify. We’re rolling out a shiny new digital sign-up for ushers, and we’d love for you to grab a spot (or a bunch).  👉 Click HERE to check it out and pick your Sundays! Why ushering, you ask? Because it’s the ultimate easy win:
👋 Smile.
📝 Hand out bulletins.
🚪 Open doors.
🤝 Help people feel at home.

Need help signing up? Swing by the Welcome Center — we’ve got you! Let’s make Sunday warm, welcoming, and maybe even a little fun. 😄

Reserved with Love ❤️You’ll notice temporary reserved signs on the back pews of the Sanctuary. These spots are set aside for those with special needs (young children qualify!) or who require easier access. Thanks for honoring these spaces and helping us keep church welcoming for all!

Let’s Keep the Party Rolling! 🎉 We’re in full-on VBS planning mode (cue the checklists), and having a good idea of attendance would really help us out! Let’s get our kids signed up for the ultimate summer party where we celebrate the Good News!  📆 June 16–19 | 2:30–5 PM  📍 Register now at frcoostburg.org. Don’t let your kids miss the joy, the games, the music, and possibly some epic snacks. 🥳

 AND…CHECK IT OUT

✔️Can We THREE-PEAT?! 🙌  We’re so close to hitting 400+ in attendance for the third week in a row — and we’d love to see YOU here on April 27 to help make it happen! Last week, 667 people filled the Sanctuary — and the Spirit was moving. 🎶 The singing shook the rafters, every pew was packed, and the joy of worshipping together was unforgettable. Let’s go for the three-peat — not just to break records, but to lift high the name of Jesus and celebrate as one body in Christ. Let’s pack the house for His glory! ✝️💥And, the offering on Apr20 totaled $18,922! We’ll give you a Special Offering breakdown next week as today is our last day to collect for Kyle & Jayne Wenig and Bob Abel.  

🥓 Breakfast Bros Assemble! ☕Guys, the savory breakfast, fun fellowship, and prayer time is happening THIS Saturday at 6 AM—at Judi’s! Set the alarm, grab a buddy. Come hungry.
