Second Sunday of every month · Church basement social room

Fellowship dinners bring us together around the table to share a meal, enjoy conversation, and get to know one another. Whether you’ve been part of First Fellowship for years or are just getting connected, there’s a place for you at the table.

We gather on the second Sunday of every month in the church’s basement social room. You don’t need to bring anything, but you’re welcome to bring a dish to share.
