TRIBE Women's Ministry At FCC

09/06/2026

🎉 WELCOME TO FCC, ETHAN! 🎉

We are excited to announce that Ethan McGowan has been affirmed by 100% of those participating to serve as our next Student Minister at First Christian Church!

We are so grateful for the prayers, unity, and encouragement that have surrounded this process, and we’re excited for this next chapter of ministry at FCC.

Please join us in welcoming Ethan, Whitney, Madison, and Elijah to the FCC family! We can’t wait to see how God uses Ethan as we continue investing in the next generation and helping students faithfully follow Jesus.

God is faithful, and we’re excited for what’s ahead!

Love God. Love People. Serve Both.

The next generation matters. And investing in them takes all of us.

We’re excited to introduce Ethan McGowan, our candidate for Student Minister at FCC! Ethan has been unanimously recommended by our Student Minister Search Team and Elders, and we’re looking forward to giving our church family the opportunity to get to know Ethan, his wife Whitney, and their children, Madison and Elijah.

Join us Sunday, August 30, from 5:30–7:00pm for a Meet & Greet Open House at FCC. Come whenever it works for you, grab some snacks, meet the McGowan family, and hear more about Ethan’s heart for discipling students and equipping them to impact their schools and communities for Christ.

Then, on Sunday, September 6, Ethan will be with us for morning worship, with a congregational affirmation following both services.

This is about more than filling a ministry position. It’s about faithfully investing in the next generation and preparing them to carry the Gospel into the places God has already put them.

We’re looking forward together—and believing the best things are still ahead.

Ladies, TRIBE Women’s Ministry Bible Study begins next Monday, August 17 at 6:00pm! 💜

This fall, Kathy Hartz and Marti Racster will lead us through the book of Matthew as we spend time in God’s Word, grow in our faith, and encourage one another along the way.

At FCC, one of our core values is Walking as Disciples—because following Jesus is a lifelong journey, and we believe we grow best when we walk that journey together. TRIBE is a great place to do just that while you Make Friends. Find Family.

Women of all ages are welcome, whether you’ve been part of TRIBE before or this will be your first time.

Haven’t signed up yet? There’s still time!
Sign up in the foyer this Sunday or online at fccevv.com.

Come open God’s Word. Come build relationships. Come take another step in following Jesus. We’d love to have you with us! 💜

Dear First Christian Church Family,

We are excited to share that Cameron Gladish has been affirmed as the next Lead Minister of First Christian Church!

We look forward to officially welcoming Cameron, Mollie, Kathryn, Eliza, and Gwen into the FCC family and are grateful for the way God has guided this process from beginning to end. Details regarding Cameron's start date and transition timeline will be communicated later this week as plans are finalized.

As we move forward, we ask that you continue to pray for the Gladish family as they prepare for this significant transition over the coming weeks. Please also pray for our church family as we enter a new season of ministry together.

We are especially grateful for Jerry Clark and his faithful leadership over the past 48 years. Jerry's love for this church, steady guidance, and commitment throughout this search and affirmation process have been invaluable. His influence has helped shape who we are today, and he will continue to play an important role as Cameron begins his ministry among us.

God has been faithful, and we are thankful for His clear guidance and the unmistakable evidence of His hand throughout this journey. We look forward with anticipation to all that He has in store for First Christian Church.

Please watch for additional updates in the coming days through email and our page.

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen."
— Ephesians 3:20-21

In Christ,

The Elders and Leadership of First Christian Church
