THE TAYLOR FILES

The truth is in here somewhere.

Before Brian & Lori officially retire at the end of July, we’re opening the archives! Watch for trivia, memories, photos, and stories from their years of ministry & community among us. Some facts may be slightly exaggerated by eyewitnesses.

Case File | Week #3

New evidence has emerged.

Just when investigators thought Pastor Brian's canoe record contained a single unfortunate incident, another witness stepped forward.

FRC member Cal Wynveen recalled a church Boundary Waters trip in northern Minnesota where he and Brian were sharing a canoe.

Everything was going fine. Then it wasn't.

According to Cal, the canoe tipped slightly. Pastor Brian attempted to help. Moments later, Brian, Cal, and most of their earthly possessions were floating in the lake. Fortunately, fellow FRCers came to the rescue. Otherwise, according to Brian, he might still be floating somewhere in the Boundary Waters!

The point of this story: Investigators now have two confirmed canoe incidents on file.  While experts caution against drawing conclusions from such a small sample size, others point out that Pastor Brian has been present for 100% of the incidents currently under investigation.

The investigation continues.

News Briefs

Did You Know? We’ve got 99 kids enrolled for VBS, 60+ volunteers commissioned, and more than 250 parents and grandparents signed up for the closing program. We’re expecting to serve close to 300 people (including volunteers) on Thursday night as we celebrate a week of learning about Jesus! Pray for no rain, please, between 2:30 and 5:00 PM next week...

Manitoqua Camper Parents - check out Toby’s Email.

The Food Vault team served 24 individuals this past Tuesday. We are also grateful for an FRC member who donated 100 pounds of beef, helping us provide nutritious food and care to those we serve.

We regret to inform you that the motmots are gone. However, one rogue motmot remains at large. Consider this your official warning: it could be anywhere, and it could appear at any time. Keep your eyes peeled! 👀🐦

Ushers— you’re currently leading the pack in filling those monthly serving requests! 🎉 July is ready for you, and we’d love to keep that streak alive.  Just click HERE, go to frcoostburg.org or stop by the Welcome Center to sign-up.

We are aware that high winds during the parking lot sealing company's final spray pass resulted in sealant on some doors and brick surfaces. The company has acknowledged the issue and will reimburse us for the necessary cleanup.

We want to express our sincere ‘Thank You’ for the many cards sent to us for our Anniversary. Neil & Phyllis Vander Ploeg.

We extend our Christian sympathies to Bob Sheehy in the passing of his wife Mary Ann Trgovec who passed away on June 4.

  • Please pray for the many people displaced by the ongoing conflict in Lebanon, and for a lasting ceasefire and political stability that will bring peace and hope to the region.
  • Pray also for wisdom, strength, and grace for JW & AW and their local ministry partners as they care for those affected by the crisis and share the hope of Christ with those facing uncertainty and hardship.
