Our Sunday worship service is being replaced with an all-congregation service event. Register to be a part of it! To help kick off the 2025 stewardship season - as we pledge our monetary gifts - we will also give our time and energy to packing 14,000 meals through Rise Against Hunger. Please remember to bring your 2025 pledge card to church so we can dedicate them together!  
 
After a quick gathering in the sanctuary, we will transition to Fellowship Hall where the meal packing will begin. All ages are welcome! Get a free FPC T-shirt when you volunteer! Register by October 25 to receive your requested T-shirt size. Sign up here to register!

A Window Shopping Class (New Member Class) will meet in person in the Parish House following the worship service. Grab a coffee and join us.  

If you are looking for a church home or are interested in knowing more about FPC, please join us.  This one-hour class is for anyone who may have questions about the Presbyterian tradition, theology, and denomination or for those who may be exploring taking the next step and becoming a member of our faith community. This is not a commitment to join but rather an informal time of sharing so interested persons can learn more about the ministry and programs of our congregation.

Please let the church office know if you will be attending by contacting us at 908-782-3227 or chall@flemingtonpres.org.  We look forward to seeing you and getting to know you better!
