Worshipful Wednesday
Join us for dinner, worship, and fun on Wednesday evenings!
On Wednesday evenings during the school year, children, youth, and adults gather for dinner in the Fellowship Hall. This meal is prepared by one of several volunteer “cooking teams” comprised of church members. Cooking teams provide a healthy meal in a wholesome environment, an opportunity for weekly “check-in” with your neighbors in faith. Church members also help clean up and break down the tables and chairs in the Fellowship Hall. A small charge covers expenses for the meal. Adults (12yrs and older)are $7.00, Children are $3.50, with a family max of $20.00. The meal is served at 5:30 p.m. and programs for all ages begin at 6:30 p.m.

The programs offered on Wednesday nights run during the school year from mid August (after Rally Day) through the middle of May. The children’s programs and the adult programs are improved and routinely changed to meet the specific needs of the congregation. The goal is to try to provide quality opportunities for fellowship and Christian education for every age.
Education in our faith is a life-long endeavor, so we offer a blended mix of adult programming. Leadership for adult programming comes from church staff, outside leaders, and church members. Wednesday nights have been scheduled for the year and broken into blocks. Adult WedThe idea is to create clear start and end dates for each class or seminar so everyone knows what is happening in advance and when it is appropriate to change classes.
We look forward to seeing you on these special Wednesdays throughout the year. If you have questions or ideas regarding Wednesday programming please continue to share them with us. Please let us know how you would like to be involved. If you are passionate about a topic or curriculum that you would like to share with the rest of the congregation, please contact Meredith Loftis, our Associate Pastor at meredith@fpcknox.org.
