You have hopefully had a chance to say hello to our summer seminarian intern, Benjamin White.
Benjamin White is a 3rd year seminarian at Princeton Theological Seminary. He lives in West Philadelphia with his wife of 5 years, Gwyneth. He is a graduate of Eastern University where he studied Spanish. He is passionate about Jesus and the city and is excited to share his gifts in the mission of FPCG.
This summer he will be working with Christian Heyer-Rivera to develop “The Basement” drop in center and he will be teaching Bible Study to the Freedom School students, along with other duties including participation in our celebration of worship on Sundays.
He looks forward to meeting you all and working with our community!

Want to find out what is happening around church? Check out the bulletin boards!
The Communications Committee has been working to make certain the various bulletin boards around the church are maintained and up to date.
Please make it a practice to view the boards where you will find much current information about the church, minutes of committees, news of members, on-going events, photos, and more.
Thank you to Dick Liberty, who has been responsible for injecting new life into these boards. He also prepared the member photo wreath on the bulletin board between the Finney and Jennings rooms - check it out if you haven’t seen it already. If you have any suggestions for improvements or inclusions for the bulletin boards please talk to Dick Liberty.

Pentecost Adult Christian Education Program
Fifty days after Easter on Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended upon Christ’s followers and the Church was born as they spread the gospel.
In celebration here at FPCG, on Pentecost Sunday, May 23rd at 11:30am, the Serendipity Bible Study is hosting a forum for FPCG members to share how God is using their gifts for ministry in their vocations and service beyond the congregation.
The Serendipity members will be providing refreshments, so plan to have your second cup of coffee after coffee hour with us in the Jennings Room.
**Please note the Nehemiah Bible lesson for the week will be at 8:45 AM that morning.
