    Faithfulness(Running the Race)

    Following Jesus is more like a

    marathon than a sprint. Some

    people are after instant fixes

    and only seem to be able to

    commit to something for a few

    weeks before they wander off

    to the next thing. Maturing in

    the Lord is a process

    accomplished over time.Developing the life of the Spirit

    - growing in His grace and fruit

    - takes place as we yield to

    Gods will day-by-day, month-

    by-month, year-by-year.

    Do you see what this meansallthese pioneers who blazed theway, all these veterans cheeringus on? It means wed better geton with it. Strip down, startrunningand never quit! Noextra spiritual fat, no parasiticsins. Keep your eyes on Jesus,who both began and finished this

    race were in. Study how hedid it. Because he never lostsight of where he was

    headedthat exhilaratingfinish in and with Godhecould put up with anythingalong the way: Cross,shame, whatever. (Hebrews12:1-2 The Message)

    One of the cool things

    about many people at FCC

    is that they have been

    walking with Jesus for

    years and even decades.

    There are deep people

    here who are not just a

    flash in the pan.

    A New Generation of Media Team Members

    SMALL GROUPS - 9:30 Sundays there

    are two adult groups meeting for

    fellowship and study.

    CROSS - Its all about the cross and

    what Jesus did for us there - no matter

    what our age.

    CHAT - Robyn & Tammy spending some

    time visiting while the youth do their

    thing.

    As a result, I believe we

    have seen multiple

    generations of people

    step up, in part, because

    they have seen longterm

    faithfulness in older

    people. We have some

    young people who are

    making adult-level

    commitments to service,

    fellowship, and

    investment here at FCC.

    I commend you to follow

    their example.

    Resurrection SundayIt isnt too early to start

    thinking about who you

    will invite to share this

    special day with you

    (April 8th). The youth have

    been practicing a powerful

    drama for many weeks and

    the children are starting to

    learn their songs as well. Itwill be a great chance to

    bring a friend to breakfast,

    then the kids Easter egg

    hunt, and finally a worship

    service that will clearly lay

    out the Good News.

    In this with YOU...
