In realizing that the holidays can be difficult for some, the church is once again providing literature that we hope will help guide you through the season. We have subjects ranging from grieving during the holidays to holiday depression. These pieces of literature are located on the table outside the church office. Feel free to take what you need free of charge. Please reach out to us if you need support. 

If you would like to honor or remember someone with a poinsettia placed in the sanctuary, please donate to the FPC Memorial Fund and let the church know your loved one’s name by emailing fpcclarksville@gmail.com or by calling 931-645-6551 before noon on December 11.  Names submitted will be listed in the December 15 & 22 bulletins.

The November card shower is for Gary & Justine Ostlund and Lew Wallace. Please join the Congregational Care Committee in sending them cards of warm wishes.
