This Week At Fruit Cove

Check back here often to find out what’s happening this week, next week, and into the future at Fruit Cove! 

Passage of the Week

We continue our journey through the Gospel of John and encourage you to read the passage of the week. Invite family members to read it with you as we focus on The Jesus Encounter

3:16 Sunday

John 3:16 is perhaps the most well-known Bbile verse, encapsulating the very essence of the gospel. On Sunday, March 16 (3/16), we will come together for worship to intentionally share the good news of Jesus Christ. Be thinking and praying about who God would have you invite to worship that day. Many of our neighbors, co-workers, classmates, relatives, and friends have never heard a clear presentation of the gospel. Those who are at Fruit Cove on 3/16 will!

Thank You Richard!

Celebrating 30 years of Richard Spangler’s commitment to Upward Basketball! From Saturday stories around our family dinner table to inspiring the next generation, his impact is profound. Thanks for all you’ve done and continue to do for our community and family. You’re a true legend in our eyes!

No MidWeek

Heads up, Fruit Cove family! Just a reminder that we will not have our usual Midweek services on Wednesday, March 19. Enjoy your Spring Break, and we’ll see you back soon! Stay safe and have a wonderful time with your loved ones.

Tuesday Evening Fellowship & Golf

We’re having our “Tuesday Evening Fellowship and Golf” at South Hampton again this year. We’ll start Tuesday, March 25th, and run through Tuesday, October 28th.

The cost remains the same as last year: $29.00, which includes a complimentary basket of range balls. We have three tee times: 5:03, 5:12, and 5:21. Arrive a little early to hit some warmup balls and then gather for praise, prayer, and pairing up before we play. After golf, many of us go to get something to eat and more fellowship.

Ladies Night of Worship

Calling all ladies for a night of faith and fellowship! Join us on March 28 at 6:30 PM for scripture readings and inspiring worship led by Ascension Worship. Doors open at 6 PM in the Worship Center. Stay for dessert and connect in Bldg A at 8 PM. “…called out of darkness into his marvelous light.” 1 Peter 2:9. We can’t wait to see you there!
