Sleep in Heavenly Peace
Volunteer Opportunity to Show the Love of Christ!
Saturday, April 27 | 8:30am-12:30pm
Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP) is a nationwide organization that provides free beds to children, ages 3-18, that do not have a bed. The Georgetown chapter serves Williamson County. A few weeks ago, Ed and Evelyn Petrere delivered two beds to a single Mom with 6 kids who live less than 2 miles from FBG, 800 block of Ranch Road. The need is literally in our back yard.
The next date to volunteer to help prepare 25 bed kits will be on Saturday, March 16, from 8:30 am – 12:30 pm at 141 Logan Ranch Road in Georgetown. No experience is necessary – Just a heart to serve. Tools, safety gear, and water will be provided; wear comfortable clothes that may get dusty.
May 16 | Lunch at Dahlia Café in Liberty Hill | 11am |
Join us at Dahlia's in Liberty Hill where we'll share lunch together and biblical community. You will order off the regular menu and pay your server. Let's be sure to tip generously!
Please register so we can make appropriate dining arrangements.
We have reserved one shuttle bus, which will depart at 10:30am from the front church parking lot and return after lunch to the same location.

Small Groups
Simply put, small groups are a place to practice what is preached. Members of a small group are loved, pursued, challenged, and transformed into a gospel-centered family that desires to live life together in Christ. Click HERE for Next Steps.
Serving
Opportunities are available to invest in the lives of others. We have multiple ministry opportunities and more are added as needs arise. Click HERE for Next Steps or HERE for learn more about our SOS [Servants On Standby] Team.

GENERATIONS
The definition of generation is “People born and living about the same time, considered as a group.” Multiple generations attend FBG and it’s our desire to be an intergenerational church, where all the generations get to know each other and worship and serve together. Our Generations Ministry offers opportunities for 55+ and encourages intergenerational ministry and cooperation throughout our church body. We encourage you to use this season of life to wholeheartedly invest in your relationship with Jesus Christ, develop meaningful friendships, and to serve the church body.
