Between March 27 and April 2, 2021, SVSCMT had three opportunities for people to attend a one-hour house meeting over Zoom. Following three weeks of promotion, 52 FCCSJ and UDF members joined with eight ministry team members in small groups of seven to nine people to discuss the following question:
Join Family Ministries and Fellowship for a trip through Christmas in the Park 2020! This year it will be a drive-through event being held at History Park.
Hello Friends! Welcome to the first issue of a new publication, FCCSJ—Keeping You Informed. We felt it was important to update you on what has been going on with our church community over the past several weeks.
Remember “Show and Tell” in elementary school? We encourage you all to think of a little story or memory to share with your breakout group relating to the week’s theme. Perhaps you want to wear something, or you have a photo or other item to show us.
Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Come to church Sunday, April 15th to purchase your Pick-A-Party tickets! Tickets will also be available right here starting April 15th at 11:30a.m. on a first come, first served basis. If you miss the 15th you will have an additional opportunity on April 22nd after worship, but be aware that many events sell out quickly.
As summer approaches (this just doesn’t seem possible, but there we are) we are looking at beginning the implementation of the Appreciative Inquiry about which I have written and spoken over the last months.
What a poignant moment this is! Every conversation, every meeting, every worship service reminds me of endings, new beginnings, and the beautiful ministry I have had here at First Congregational Church of San Jose over the past few years.
