How did you first become involved at FCC?

"When my wife and I moved to Macomb in 1990, we began visiting churches. FCC was the friendliest and most solicits. I remember Joe and Mary Stipanowich visiting us at home with pamphlets in hand. They were the ones who helped us make the final decision to join FCC…Never one regret about that! The crowds were much larger then with the sanctuary nearly full!"

I would not be afraid to bring anyone to a service at FCC. Everyone has always been friendly and accepting toward visitors. I can’t say that about all churches. I would want people to know about the Experience service. The times that I have been able to attend has been so special. I really wish I could attend this service on a more regular basis. It’s just such a beautiful service."
