Youth Build Prayer Garden
The Junior High youth group took on some mission projects here on the church campus the weekend of Aug. 1.

We're Celebrating: 125

We had some great celebration times the morning and evening of April 20. Then we walked in the Petaluma Butter and Eggs Parade, April 26. We had our Happy Day presence in the new Children’s parade and an anniversary entry in the main parade.
The culmination of our celebration is still ahead o f us: July 5 & 6. We will have an event Saturday night, followed by Sunday worship on the lawn with former pastors and families. Former members will be invited to join with our current members and attendees, so mark you calendar and don’t miss it.
Many thanks to our great Anniversary Celebration Team, headed by Cindy Newsom and Keith Lew. You can still help by volunteering with one of the teams. Also, if you have any pictures of the church in action in days gone by, we would love to borrow them so we can make copies. Also, we would love to see bulletins, newsletters, hymnbooks, sermon tapes or other artifacts from FPCP’s past days.
Our hope throughout is that as we celebrate God’s faithfulness in the past, we will grow in confidence that God will provide in our future. “Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good (past); His love endures forever (future). Psalm 136:1.
