Planning for 2008


On November 28th we held an open meeting for all FNC to share ideas, thoughts and passions for FNC in 2008 and beyond.

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.” Colossians 2:6-7

Our goals: (general guiding-type goals, not designed to be taken as long term necessarily)…

In doing that, we make sure we do part of one of the gospels, at least one of the New Testament letters, and a good chunk of the Old Testament each year.

Read on for what 2008 holds…
