Sunday Worship: March 17, 2024 

8:30 a.m.  (with Communion) and 11:00 a.m. Worship Services

Welcome Guest Speaker:  Rev. Gregory Han

"Holy Waste" 

Scripture:  Psalm 126:1-6; John 12:1-8.

Flowers in the Sanctuary


Flowers in the Sanctuary  on Sunday are given
to the Glory of God


Annual Meeting of the Congregation: March 17th

The Annual Meeting of the Congregation will take place on March 17th at the 11:00 worship service. There we will learn of the church‘s projected budget, as well as going over highlights of the many committees at FPC. Annual Reports will be provided at that time.


Flowering the Cross

The flowering of the cross represents the transition from Good Friday to Easter, from meditation on Jesus' death to joyful celebration of His resurrection. The ceremony transforms a barren cross,
a reminder of Jesus' death, into an Easter symbol,
so please feel free to bring flowers for flowering the cross on Easter Sunday.

Easter Lily Order/Dedication Form
Final Week

As is our usual practice, we will have lilies for the Easter Sunday services, along with dedications in celebration, honor or memory of loved ones.

Forms for dedications are located on page 19 of this bulletin (or you can pick one up at the Welcome Desk).

Simply complete the form and place it in the offering plate, or return it to the church office, with your payment of $15 per lily. The deadline for lily orders is Thursday, March 21. 

Our 2024 flower calendar is available at the Welcome Desk if you would like to sign up for a flower dedication. The flowers always contribute nicely to our Sunday worship services,
and they are yours to take home if you so wish.

PNC Update #3

The Pastor Nominating Committee (PNC) would like to thank everyone who responded to the recent survey, which will help guide us in our search efforts. Over the next few weeks, the PNC will work on drafting the Ministry Discernment Profile, which will be uploaded to the PCUSA’s Church Leadership Connection portal. This will give us the best opportunity to find a “match” with pastors who may be interested in coming to FPC Conroe. As always, the PNC asks for the congregation’s prayers as we continue our work to find our next pastor.


Church Directory Update


Many of you have been asking about the status of the updated church pictorial directory. There was a delay in the process as the Membership committee worked to update the church’s active membership listing. Now that this is complete, we are working with the publisher to make sure the directory is published in an expedited fashion. As soon as we have a delivery date from the publisher, we will reach out to everyone who participated in the photo session. We thank you for your patience!

Are You a Music Lover?

If you enjoy making a joyful noise, and would be willing to lend your voice and your talents to the FPC music program, you are most welcome! Contact Music Director, Stephanie Cooke, at schteff3@gmail.com. She will be able to answer any questions you may have and discuss opportunities with the choir and handbells.

PDS Open Enrollment Available Now:

PDS is currently offering open enrollment. If you, or someone you know, is look ing for a quality child care program, please call the PDS office (936) 756-3990.
