An Update to the FPC, Conroe Capital Campaign
More Good News!
Paul encouraged the Ephesians regarding the ability of God and his work in and through his people when he penned these inspired words, “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power at work in us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. (Ephesians 3:20-21, NIV) Our initial goal for the capital campaign was to raise $800,000 over a three year period. As of February 15, 2026, we have received $805,000 and after we re-amortize our building loan for the second time (estimated to be finalized by April 1), we will have effectively reduced our annual debt service by $70,000. Through God’s grace, effectively working through his people, we have accom plished in less than one-year what we had hoped to achieve in three years. To compound this wonderful news, with the continued giving of your campaign pledges and one-time gifts, we estimate that we will have reduced our debt burden from $2.4 million at the onset of our campaign to less than $1 million at the closure of our three-year campaign, resulting in annual savings of $100,000!! Indeed, Paul summed it beautifully, “…to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. (Ephesians 3:21, NIV) Finally, please continue to pray for the continued effectiveness of this effort and our church. Blessings, Capital Campaign Committee

Looking for Mo Men
Annual Men's Conference at Mo-Ranch
Friday, May 1, through Sunday, May 3.
Friday, May 1, through Sunday, May 3.
Interested in a weekend filled with food, fun and fellowship - in the beautiful Texas Hill Country? The annual Men's Conference at Mo-Ranch takes place Friday, May 1, through Sunday, May 3.
It is a chance to experience incredible sermons, engaging workshops on a variety of "manly" topics (learn how to cook a brisket or how to play pickleball), as well as various Bible oriented classes), and enjoy the gorgeous scenery from throughout the facility. You can even test your bravery on the famous Mo-Ranch slide into the refreshing Guadalupe River. Last year, four men from our church "tested" the waters; this year, we're looking for more!
We'll leave from the church on Friday morning and return by mid-afternoon on Sunday. For more information, contact Steve Scheffler (scscheffler@sbcglobal.net or 281.851.1690). We will partner with The Woodlands Community Presbyterian Church to reserve our spots by early March, so give it some thought and save the date!

Alaska Youth Mission Trip
A wild and rugged frontier land, Alaska encompasses breathtaking landscapes and some of the most diverse neighborhoods in America. Alaskans are often very independent-minded people, which can make ministry challenging, but also very rewarding.
Teams work in Anchorage, the Matanuska Valley, and the Kenai Peninsula alongside local churches and ministries who are sharing the hope of Christ in a physically and spiritually dark place (Alaska is dark 20 hours/day in the winter: summers have sunshine long into the evening). On your mission trip, you’ll be an encouragement to those you partner alongside, while building meaningful relationships and experiencing the unmatched beauty of Alaska.
WHY ALASKA?
- MOST UNCHURCHED STATE IN THE US
- POVERTY, ALCOHOLISM, ABUSE, AND HOMELESSNESS AMONG THE HIGHEST IN THE NATION
- LOCAL PASTORS WANT THE HELP AND ENCOURAGEMENT OF OUTREACH ORIENTED TEAMS
- INVEST IN AWESOME KIDS IN NEED OF CHRISTIAN ROLE MODELS
- EXPERIENCE THE RUGGED BEAUTY OF THE LAST FRONTER: GLACIER-FED LAKES, LUSH FORESTS, AND SNOW-CAPPED MOUNTAINS TEEMING WITH WILDLIFE
