We are so glad that you joined the Fellowship Family to worship this morning.  If you are joining us for the first time or have been checking us out for a few weeks, we are excited you are here and would love to meet you.  Please fill out the “Connect” section of your bulletin, tear it off, and bring it to the Connection Center in the Atrium, we would love to say “hi” and give you a gift.

Serve in Your SHAPE
Getting connected in serving is often intimidating – knowing what opportunities are available and the time commitment to fulfill the role. Fellowship has tried to make the process a bit easier. Check out fellowshipconway.org/serve to see current and ongoing service opportunities for you to try out and see if it is a fit for you.  We place a high value on every believer using their God given gifts to serve the Kingdom.  Email Shane at swanamaker@fellowshipconway.org if he can help in any way.
