Welcome!
Thank you for taking the time to consider us as your new faith family. Whether you are a new believer or have deep roots in church, or just seeking direction and strength in your life, here at FGCC we seek to provide a place where all are welcome. We believe in the Word of God as contained in Holy Scripture, and in the Lordship of our Savior Jesus Christ, who lived, died and rose again and offers us the amazing gift of forgiveness, redemption and salvation.
We know life can be challenging and strongly believe in the importance of connecting with others as we grow in our faith, find hope and strength in difficult times, and celebrate the love of Jesus Christ. We invite you to join us for Sunday Worship, sharing in God’s goodness and greatness together, and pray that you find a welcoming, loving and faith-based home with us.

What To Expect
We hope to create an environment for visitors that is exciting and welcoming yet not overwhelming. Typical Service lasts 60 minutes and please dress in what clothes make you comfortable to worship. When you arrive, you will find a large parking lot across the street and if needed you may pull up to our front door and unload any passengers that may need assistance. Take the steps or the elevator to our Lobby where you will see the entrance to the sanctuary , as well as a coffee bar and restrooms.
As you seat yourself in the sanctuary, one of our greeters will provide a bulletin to help you follow the worship program. For families with younger children, we offer activity bags found at the back of the sanctuary. Nursery child care is available.
Encountering God in Worship
-
Music
Our music in worship helps us express emotions where words alone fail and helps to lift our spirits to engage with God more fully.
-
Scripture
We believe the Bible is inspired by God. We invite you to join in hearing God's voice speaking to us through his Holy Scriptures.
-
Message
God's message is not only applicable to our lives today, but essential for an abundant life. We invite you to listen with an open heart and a discerning mind to what God may reveal to your spirit.
-
Response
When God moves or reveals truth in our lives we are called to respond to that truth. We respond with songs, but also with obedience and steps of faith in our daily lives.
-
Offering
Our generosity is a way we can thank and trust God for his provision, and support the work of God through Fawn Church. If you are a guest, please do not feel obligated to participate in the offering.
What We Believe
At the heart of all sound church doctrine is the cross of Jesus Christ and the infinite privilege that redeemed sinners have in glorifying God because of what He has accomplished. Therefore, we want all that takes place in our hearts, churches, and ministries to proceed from and be related to the authentic words of God found in the Holy Bible.
