Special Notes
FFPC statement on the events in our nation’s capitol:
We as an organization are asking all Christians to stop and cry out to God for His mercy in this moment in our country’s history.
We stand firm with those who seek to engage in peaceful protest in our nation’s capital and across the country because of election law violations. We also unequivocally condemn the anarchy and violence which was displayed at the United States Capitol today. Such demonstrations are neither productive nor are they in the spirit of our values as an organization.
I just recorded this 2 min video for you…

I am so grateful for your prayers and financial support this year. We simply could not continue to do all that we do, without you. The new year will be certain to bring many opportunities as well as challenges. Please stand with me know while your support will be DOUBLED!
From our Family to Yours: Merry Christmas! PS – My Momma’s now famous recipe for rich and thick spaghetti red sauce is enclosed again.
As the culture darkens around us, Christmas is the ultimate cure to that darkness. And it is because of Christ we can continually have hope.
