Thoughtful Faith Community
TFC
On Sunday evenings, our congregation comes together for Thoughtful Faith Community.
We share a meal and prayer time and participate in a variety of activities for all ages. TFC is a wonderful opportunity for not only spiritual growth, but also for getting to know one another and developing friendship.

Kitchen Volunteers
A strong team of volunteers is essential to making TFC a welcoming and enjoyable gathering for the church. We need volunteers to assist Sunday evenings.

We have money collectors in place, but ideally, we need 4 teams of 3 to 4 people who can assist the chef with the set up and clean up on a regular rotating basis.
Volunteers are scheduled for 3:45 to 6:30 p.m. The church covers the cost of the meal for the evening’s volunteers. Click the button below to sign up on Sign Up Genius.
