Operation Christmas Child (OCC): Year-Round Collection

When: Monthly

We are collecting year-round at FBCTLH for Operation Christmas Child. Each month, new (not used) items can be brought in and dropped into OCC bins in the Connect Center. For October, we are focusing on bringing in miscellaneous items that are still needed for Operation Christmas Child. Our goal is to pack 150 shoeboxes at our packing party on Saturday, Nov. 5, at 9 AM in the Fellowship Hall. There is an OCC ‘Christmas Wish List’ board in the Welcome Center. On the board are Christmas tags with items that are needed for the packing party. You can take a tag and sign up to put items in the OCC bin in the Connect Center by Nov. 1.

Storytelling Photography Team

When: Year-round

One of the best ways to help make God known is by sharing stories of what He has done. As a diverse, loving, evangelistic, service-oriented, giving, and mission-minded church involved in many activities in the community and around the world, FBCTLH has many beautiful stories to share.

God created us to know Him and make Him known, and one of the best ways to tell stories today is through the visual and creative arts.

Do you enjoy taking photos or shooting videos? Are you interested in being part of a storytelling team? If so, contact the Communications office (x132), for information on how you can be a part of a team that’s helping to share with our community what God is doing through FBCTLH.

Hospital & Homebound Visitation Teams

Do you want to serve the Kingdom of Jesus with your presence? Do you have some extra time in your week or a particular day each month to visit fellow church members in their home or in the hospital? Then we have a ministry opportunity for you!
We have a rotation of members who visit FBCTLH members in the hospital each day. It typically works out to be a commitment of one day a month and is one of our most rewarding daily ministries as a congregation.

Monday through Wednesday, each week, church members volunteer to pick up floral arrangements from the church and visit our homebound members. Of course, you are not limited to early in the week nor do you have to bring flowers, but we are always looking for more members to visit our homebound saints. The homebound book and flowers are located in front of the FBCTLH library on the 1st floor.

Contact Joy Stein (x131- joy@fbctlh.org) to participate.
