Life Abundant Gift Collection

In the lead up to the Christmas season, we are collecting gifts to be given out by Life Abundant Prison Ministries to children of those affected by incarceration.

If you would like to participate, please do the following:

1. Choose an ornament from the tree on the table in the Fellowship Hall next to the nursery. (Note: each child has two ornaments on the tree, but you only need to take one of them.)
2. Put your name on the sign-up sheet by the child’s name you have chosen.
3. Purchase an appropriate gift for the sex and age of the child. (If you need suggestions, these can be found in the folders on the table.)
4. Wrap the gift and then attach the ornament to the gift as a tag.
5. Return the wrapped gift to the table no later than the evening of Sunday, December 1st.

Thanks to everyone who has already signed up to participate. Please contact the office if you have any questions.

Thanksgiving Eve Service & Pie Potluck

Join us on Wednesday, November 27th at 7:00pm for our annual Thanksgiving Eve Service and Pie Potluck. We will gather to sing and give thanks to God, and then retire to the Fellowship Hall to enjoy pie and one another's company. Bring a pie to share. We'll see you then!

Giving Information

Giving at FBC Wycombe goes toward three funds: 1) General Fund, 2) Missions, and 3) Benevolence. Benevolence is collected in special plates twice a month; the others are collected every week.

Any undesignated contributions go toward the General Fund. Because Missions has a separate budget, it is necessary for missions giving to be designated. To give to the Missions Fund, please designate the amount on an offering envelope. If giving by check, please designate the amount for Missions in the memo line as well.

As always, offering plates will be placed at each exit this Sunday. If you would prefer to mail in your offering, you may still do so; simply send your gift to the following:
