people
Collaborate. Participate. Create.
At FBC we strive to be a people that meets regularly to practice listening to God and each other.
Some choose to gather with others who share an affinity for a particular area of interest. Teams meet at least monthly, and meetings are open to all who share the interest.
Each team is asking the same question, “What does Love require?” Each team has its own way of asking the question.
