Love Where We Live on October 31
We encourage members of FBCOP to love where we live on October 31 by intentionally and strategically using the day to meet neighbors, serve them, and either begin or grow relationships. People matter and this day provides an opportunity to show love to neighbor and to begin or continue gospel conversations with them. So, there is no event on the church property this evening, but there will be many events with the church as our family members are “being the church” where they live.
HOW TO LOVE WHERE WE LIVE ON OCTOBER 31…
Pray for those in your neighborhood. Pray for new relationships and for existing ones to grow.
Be intentional. Be real. Be the neighbor others want.
Don’t let Halloween be the only time you engage with your neighbors intentionally. Be prepared to have gospel conversations.
PLEASE DON’T…
Turn off your porch light as a protest to the holiday.
Hand out Bible tracts instead of candy.
Hand out candy alternatives (toothbrush, fruit, healthy snacks.) Let parents determine.
Scare children or prank people as they come to your house.
SOME IDEAS…
Provide bottled water, soft drinks, or hot chocolate to parents.
If you live on cul-de-sac, work with your neighbors to provide a group event.
Create a photo booth. Don’t take pics on your phone, but provide a “selfie booth.”
Carpool with neighbors to places that are providing large events.
Give out glowsticks or glow-in-the dark necklaces in addition to candy.
Give out the good candy. Ask a kid.
AFTERWARD…
HELP CLEAN UP - You may have that neighbor who goes all out with decorations. Offer to help with the clean up or taking down of the items.
BE A FRIEND - You may meet neighbors you have lived near for a while. Learn their names and seek ways to serve them. Love your neighbors, but not as a project. Live out your faith.








Carols & Candlelight Christmas Eve Service
We will gather on Christmas Eve at 6pm to worship the Lord and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. This is a family service, so no separate child-care is available. Join us and bring the entire family as we celebrate Christmas together.










Sunday Seminar
We welcome Dr. Christopher Yuan back to First Baptist Church. He and his parents were here in 2013 and shared their incredible story. Dr. Yuan is a highly sought-after expert whose book, Holy Sexuality and the Gospel, was named 2020 Book of the Year for Social Issues by Outreach Magazine. Dr. Yuan casts a compelling vision of not identifying with our sexuality, but embracing Christ and living out Holy Sexuality, which shatters the secular paradigms of gay and straight.
Dr. Yuan will be joined on February 23 by his mother Angela, as they minister together testifying to the transformative power of the gospel. Dr. Yuan's father, Leon, went to be with the Lord in 2022, but we will see a recorded message from him as well. Dr. Yuan graduated from Moody Bible Institute in 2005 and received a master's degree in biblical exegesis in 2007 and a doctorate of ministry in 2014. He taught the Bible at Moody Bible institute for twelve years and his speaking ministry on faith and sexuality has reached five continents.
Angela Yuan has experienced much heartache from a broken but redeemed marriage and prodigal sons. But, God has given her the grace to rely upon his power to change the unchangeable and focus upon her own daily renewal and transformation.
Christopher has also produced The Holy Sexuality Project video series for parents and their teenagers. It is a first of its kind resource to help parents and grandparents to empower their teenagers to understand, embrace, and celebrate biblical sexuality.
5pm - SEXUAL IDENTITY: FALSE IDENTITY - Our Sunday Seminar will feature Dr. Yuan teaching on the subject of Holy Sexuality and the Gospel.
We will have books available for purchase that morning in our front foyer. These special seminars and services are open to all, so invite all who may benefit from the topic.


Milestone 4: Purity
This milestone equips parents and students to understand the biblical views of sex, intimacy, and purity. This allows for healthy conversations with maturing children and teenagers in an ever-changing culture.
Our special guests for this parent and teenager conference are Dr. Christopher Yuan and his mother Angela. They will be sharing on the topic of Holy Sexuality during the 9:15am Bible study hour. This teaching will occur in our Student Building. All teenagers and parents are encouraged to attend. This will be our student Sunday school gathering for the day.
Dr. Yuan and Angela will be sharing during our 10:45am worship service and will once again share at 5pm for our monthly Sunday Seminar.
