WELCOME! Our heartbeat is to Connect to Christ, Grow with Others, and Engage the World together as Family. We gather to be disciples totally committed to Christ, becoming like Him in supreme love for God, selfless love for others, and sacrificial love for the world as we go locally, regionally, and globally. We hope you participate today with an expectation to encounter the Lord and a desire to celebrate the wonder of Jesus. It’s all about Him!

Monthly Prayer Focus - Discipleship & Outreach
Being witnesses of the love and reality of Jesus is one of our biggest privileges as disciples of Jesus. So let’s pray that the Holy Spirit would increase our love and our desire to represent and proclaim Christ in practical and real ways. May we remember that each person we meet is created in the image of God and God loves them. Pray that every person at FACT would fully embrace the complete picture of what it means to be a healthy disciple of Jesus and that as we live in the fullness of Christ, we would seek out and respond to the opportunities to bless people and make new disciples in our community every day. Pray for willingness and boldness to build relationships with individuals in our spheres of influence, even when it’s challenging, because relationships open doors.
