REMEMBRANCE SERVICE
December 10th  •  4:00 – 5:00 PM  •  Sanctuary
In our Remembrance Service we gather together to remember that we are not alone in our grief, our tears and our memories. The light of Christ meets us with hope in the darkness as we light a candle in remembrance of our loved ones who have passed away. You, your family, and friends are invited to our Remembrance Service on Sunday, December 10th at 4:00 PM in our Sanctuary. If you would like, you may email a photo of your loved one to be included in a special moment of remembrance during the service. Please include your loved one’s first and last name and email to care@fmcm.org by December 8th. You may also bring a photo of your loved one to the Remembrance Service to place near the candle you will light in their memory. Seating will be available for you to pause, remember and give thanks to God for your loved one. Our Remembrance Tree is available now, near the Walnut Creek Drive entrance of Building C, our Chapel Building. Stop by any time of day to write your loved one’s name on an ornament and place the ornament on the Remembrance Tree.
Our Pastoral Care Team is here to support you throughout the year, and especially when life seems heavy and overwhelming in the holiday season. If you are in need of prayer or would like to talk with a pastor, please contact us at care@fmcm.org. We would love to help!

Zoe Christmas Eve Offering
Each year, our Christmas Eve offering goes towards our ministry partner, ZOE Empowers. ZOE transforms the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children through a three-year empowerment program, guiding them from poverty and neglect to self-sufficiency and community. It is one of the most powerful examples of transformation through empowerment. ZOE is our largest ministry partner in regards to total financial support since we first partnered back in 2005.  Your offering will go towards helping many others through this life-changing program. For more information on this powerful ministry, go here. To make a gift, visit this link.
