Dear Rods N' Rides,
It was great to meet both or you this past Sunday and I want to thank you and all of the Rod’s n Rides members from your area for taking the time to visit Friendship Community Church for our 8th Annual Biker and Car Buff Sunday. Everyone was so friendly and encouraging and we were blessed to have you here! We are a church plant of Classis Heartland of the CRC and have been sharing the gospel here for the past 13 years. Carol and I started with three couples meeting in our family room and we have grown to an average of 85 in worship each Sunday. During the school year we minister each Wednesday night to over 50 kids through our Family Night program. Almost 20 teens attend and many of them are from single parent homes and their parents don’t attend a church. We have had many joys and disappointments but God has been faithful each step of the way. We were blessed to be able to move into our own church building three years ago. As you can see we are working right now to finish our parking lot and I want to thank your group for your generous donations toward that cause. God has enabled us to minister to many people who have given up on church or have never been part of a church so we need your prayers as we seek to share the good news of Jesus with them and disciple them. I am enclosing a copy of our recent Prayer Connection letter that we send out to our prayer partners and supporting churches. I certainly hope that your group can join us again next year for the Biker and Car Buff Sunday. I will send you a flyer next year as soon as we get a date. May God bless you as you serve the Lord where He has planted you! If you ever need to contact me please call my cell phone at 259-4730. I hope to see you again soon! In Christ’s love, Pastor Verlyn Schaap and the Leadership Team of FCC
