CBOQ Assembly (Conference)

All Hands On DECK

CBOQ Assembly  – June 13 to 15, 2024

Assembly serves as the annual conference of CBOQ’s churches. The 2024 theme, “All Hands on Deck,” underscores the vital role each church and individual plays in making a difference. FHBC is gearing up to participate fully, with several attendees slated to represent us at the AGM. Attendees will engage in learning sessions, spiritual growth, and connections.   If you are interested in attending Assembly 2024, please speak with Lila;  your Registration costs will be covered.

“How Strong are our Ropes?” When the call-to-action echoes, reminiscent of a captain summoning “All Hands on Deck,” swift response is crucial.  Yet, as FHBC charts its course forward, we must assess the condition of our “ropes” both individually and collectively. Let’s persist in prayer for FHBC, aligning ourselves with God’s work within our church, and together, let’s raise our sails unitedly.

Mission Trip to Visit Los Cabos Kids

Mission Trip Information Meeting

(Meeting Date UPDATED)

Fallingbrook Heights Baptist Church at the Centre is thrilled to announce a super-exciting mission trip opportunity for 2024! It’s going to be an epic journey to La Paz, located on the beautiful Sea of Cortez, and we want YOU to be a part of it!

You are invited to attend an information session to tell you all about this Mission trip.
When: Friday, April 19 at 7 pm
Where: At the Wiebe residence
Please RSVP (below)

We will be visiting one of our mission partners in Mexico – Feeding Los Cabos Kids – that reaches children in some of the poorest areas around Los Cabos.  We will be working together to share God’s love, not only by bringing food, clothing and other donations, but just by spending interacting with the kids.

We have also partnered with a local church in La Paz to provide additional opportunities for spiritual and practical experiences with outreaches to the poor around the city.

Come and join us on April 19th and learn more about this mission, what we will be doing and how you can be part of the mission team.

Blessings,

Patricia Griffin
Missions Chair
