Prayer Requests

Please remember your FBCG family in prayer this week:   Kay Grimes,  Padma Lacy, Barb McConkey, John Rea, Marj Walls, Penny Welch and Mary Pat Wright with continuing health needs.

People serving in the military. See list below.

Pray with the pastors and prayer team at the close of services. On the East Campus, the prayer team is available at the front of the sanctuary. This is a time for praying with you about life's situations and challenges.

Condolences

We extend our love and sympathy to families who have lost loved ones recently: to Glen Rowedder on the passing away of his wife, Anna, on Thursday, March 4; to Reinhard and Pam Pilz on the passing of Pam's brother, Jeff, on Friday, March 5. Please keep these families in your prayers.

Shower

A wedding shower for Katy Beers and Stetson Butler will be held Saturday, April 10, at 10:00 am at the home of Sherri Shallenberg (1657 Sauk Drive, Batavia). RSVP to 630-406-7016.  A wedding shower for Vera Dusenbery and Donald Sultz will be held in the East Campus Chapel on Sunday, April 11, at 2:00 pm.  Donations to a group gift for either shower may be dropped in the church office.

Congratulations

Our congratulations and best wishes to the parents and grandparents of Lean Eloise Sartell, born to Brandt and Tracy Sartell on Friday, March 5, 2010. She is welcomed at home by big brother Henry!

Keep in Touch with FBCG

Should you or a family member be hospitalized and you wish the pastor to know, please give the church office a call at 630.232.7068. We do want to know of illnesses, hospitalizations, or a death in the family, and we rely on you to keep us informed. You can submit a prayer request to the iPray team  to pray for a need in your family.

More prayer warriors are needed to join the telephone prayer chain. If you feel God can use you in this ministry, call the church office at 630.232.7068
