FBC'S Marriage Ministry enjoyed a different twist to "Game Night". There were different events and activities that fostered communication, understanding, and fun. The game of LIFE can be adventurous, especially when you CONNECT 4 life with the right person. Marriage is not a game; expect some elements of TROUBLE, but know how to navigate through them. Don't avoid each other using CHUTES and LADDERS to escape the issues. Say you're SORRY, and continue to fight for each other. Know and respect your spouse in what could trigger him/her. Certain things could prove yo be TABOO; therefore, tread lightly, pray for peace and clarity, then pray for opportunities to communicate calmly. May there be trust between you two to laugh, comfort, and share your feelings. LET'S GET DEEP spiritually, emotionally, socially,...🥰
Always cover each other in prayer, and choose to enjoy each other everyday while life is lifing.

"Thanks" goes to our coordinators Keisha Chante' & Edgar Ray for keeping our get-togethers thought provoking and fun.

Jesus went to Calvary to save a wretch like you and me...There Is No Greater Love! ✝️

We pray you remember Jesus' love for you transcends everything. Reverence this day knowing that you are loved and covered in His blood and righteousness.

FBC also celebrated more love with the baby dedication of Donkor Uriah Hardie, Jr. 🩵

May you experience the love of Christ this week and beyond.🙏🏾🥰
