First Friends Celebrates Our Own

First Friends Celebrates Our Own

The coming months hold inspiration, blessings and joyful surprises as “First Friends Celebrates Our Own.” For years Planning Committees have scoured Middle Tennessee, seeking interesting speakers for our Thursday Luncheon programs, and no doubt, we have been successful in hosting outstanding guests. This year, it occurred to the Planning Committee that we have people right here among us, fellow members of FPC, with some of the most compelling stories around. We invited some of these remarkable persons to share from their life experiences at the Thursday Luncheon program, and they all graciously accepted. You will personally know some of the speakers; others you may not know, but our hope is that after hearing their stories this year, we all will feel more connected. We will be hearing from the military, CEOs, refugees, an attorney, farmers, a broadcaster — all with stories of struggle and faith.

Luncheon programs are held in Courtenay Hall the third Thursday of the month. We will enjoy a buffet lunch at noon, followed by “A Word from the Pastor” and then the guest speaker. Everyone is encouraged to come help us celebrate the outstanding contributions these friends have made. Watch for notices in First Edition and Sunday Edition for the speaker of the month. Reservations for lunch ($6) should be made by Monday of the week of the program.

In addition to the Thursday luncheon, First Friends enjoys other times of fun and fellowship. The third Sunday of each month, following the 11:00 A.M. worship, we have lunch together at a local restaurant. Sign-up is due by the Friday before. We also enjoy Day Trips. Look for notices of them in First Edition and Sunday Edition. For bridge lovers, we offer First Friday Bridge; contact Betsy Davies (377-3048) for information. The last event for the fall season will be our Christmas Dinner/Holiday Lights Tour. Put the date on your calendar — December 20, 5:00 P.M. — and watch for details.
