Operation Christmas Child 2018
The world’s largest Christmas project of its kind, Operation Christmas Child utilizes gift-filled shoeboxes to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. Are you ready to be a part of the movement?
How to Pack & Deliver Your Shoebox Gifts!
Find a Shoebox
Start with an average-size cardboard or plastic shoebox. If you want to wrap it, cover the box and lid separately. Or pick-up a box at church.
Girl or Boy?
Decide whether you will pack a box for a girl or a boy, and the age category.
Can’t decide? Feel free to build multiple shoebox gifts! The more the merrier!
Fill with Gifts
Select a quality “wow” toy such as a doll, soccer ball with pump, or stuffed animal.
Then add other fun toys, hygiene items, and school supplies. See gift “DOs and DON’Ts” here.
Pray
Most importantly, pray for the child who will receive your Operation Christmas Child shoebox gift. You can also include a personal note and photo.
$9 Tracking Labels
Donate $9 online and receive a tracking label to Follow Your Box and discover the destination of your shoebox gift.
Alternatively, you can use the labels from the printed brochure and send a check or cash in the envelope (provided in the brochure)1
Drop-Off
Take your shoebox gift(s) to Faith Community Church on Sunday, Nov. 11 or 18 (between 9:30am-12:30pm) or during normal weekday operating hours by Nov. 16.

Good Friday Service
Good Friday is a time we come together at Faith Community Church to remember and reflect on the suffering and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
His death on the cross–while a somber and dark day in our world’s history–was the necessary precursor to the miracle of Resurrection Sunday (Easter).
Join us at 6:30pm on Friday, March 30 for a family worship service* that blends gospel narrative, contemplative music, and self-reflection.
Remember to finish the story on Easter Sunday during one of our Celebration Services (8:30am | 10:30am).
*Nursery & kids classrooms available for children 4 years old & younger.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” -Matthew 11:28-30

Risen: Good Friday Movie Event
Join us on Good Friday, April 14 at 6:45pm for this free movie event.
Risen is the epic Biblical story of the Resurrection, as told through the eyes of a non-believer. Clavius (Joseph Fiennes), a powerful Roman military tribune, and his aide, Lucius (Tom Felton), are tasked with solving the mystery of what happened to Jesus in the weeks following the crucifixion, in order to disprove the rumors of a risen Messiah and prevent an uprising in Jerusalem.
We will serve communion afterward for those who would like to partake.
Come grab a seat in our auditorium at 6:45pm–the movie will begin promptly at 7:00pm. Risen is rated PG-13 and children under 13 years of age must be accompanied by a parent. Family discussion guides will be available to take home with you free of charge.
There will not be childcare available for this event.
The Art of Marriage Retreat
The Art of Marriage retreat is for anyone (married, engaged, dating, or single) who wants to fine-tune their thinking about marriage and be better equipped for relationship success.
The retreat is Friday, Nov. 4 (7:30-9pm) – Saturday, Nov. 5 (9am-4pm) and weaves together expert teaching, real life stories, humorous vignettes, and a whole lot more from six video sessions.
Each topic leaps onto our big-screens from marriage experts and respected Christians leaders such as Dennis & Barbara Rainey, Voddie Baucham, Wayne & Margaret Grudem, Dave Harvey, and a host of others as they communicate with humor and insight about God’s purpose and plan for marriage.
You will learn how to communicate well, overcome loneliness, take ownership of your role in the relationship, work through conflict, obtain/increase intimacy, and leave a lasting family legacy.
Your registration includes The Art of Marriage workbook for each participant, 6-sessions of marriage preparation and improvement tips, snacks, lots of fun, and a fresh hope for living life in a new way.
There will be a lunch break on Saturday for you to enjoy one of the nearby eateries (not included in price).
There is no childcare available as we want to provide a setting that is without distraction and allows each participant to relax and get the most out of their time away. Come join us!

Heartbeat Conference
Heartbeat Conference
February 19 (6pm) – 21 (9pm), 2016
$25
Why does God’s call for evangelism and discipleship so quickly lose its luster and get placed on the back burner of life?
However, our hearts naturally tend to stray from the heartbeat of God.
Join us during this multi-day conference (presented by Faith Warrior Ministry and Faith Community Church) as we focus our hearts on loving God, loving others, and learning how.
$25 covers materials and food for three days of hands-on workshops, heartfelt worship, encouraging messages, fellowship, and more.
Each evening will end by 9:00pm (no lodging on site).
Faith Community Church | 2700 Rancho Pancho | Carlsbad, 92009 | 760-930-0400
