THANK YOU for Your Generous Pledges on Thanksgiving Sunday!

Thank you, Stewardship Committee (Will Arrington [Chair], Lesa Goder, Ross Hicks, Sara Little, Karla Posey, and Denice Williamson), for inviting us to celebrate 30 Days of Prayer and Thanksgiving during November, as we prepared to offer our joyful thanks to God for the good gifts we have received. This year, we received pledges of $288,000 on Thanksgiving Sunday . We will continue to receive estimates of giving during the next few weeks from members who were not able to be present and will update you on the final totals and the budget for the coming year as Session does its work. Thank you, FPC, for your faithful response to God's call to give joyfully and generously to the mission of Jesus Christ in Clarksville and Montgomery County! And thank you, Fellowship Committee, for a wonderful Thanksgiving Lunch!
