Ministry at FTCC
FTCC in Action
FTCC is a very active church community with many ministries doing amazing work in our own church community, our local community and supporting causes around the world. Below is a list of all FTCC does:
Church Family Ministry Teams:
Coffee Hour Ministry Team
Fellowship Ministry Team
Parish Visitors Ministry Team
Red Hat Mommas
Seaside Christmas Fair Organizers Team
Welcoming Team
Mission Ministry Teams:
Appalachia Service Project
The program, which has benefited so many people, from people in Appalachia in desperate need of home repair in some of the poorest areas of our country, to hundreds of teens and adults who participated in this singular-service work.
Communications Team
Prayer Shawl Ministry Team
This group plays a vital role in reaching out to Church members who need extra comfort by knitting blankets. Recipients have recently lost a loved one or the most joyous is the presentation of a shawl to a newly baptized baby's family at the baptism.
Open and Affirming Task Force
The Open and Affirming Task Force (ONA) was formed to re-affirm our commitment to the LGBTQ Community. We provide education on LGBTQ issues and celebration of the LGBTQ community. Click here or more info.
Senior Lunch Ministry Team
Thursdays are a day when the seniors of the community get together to cook serve, and socialize at the senior lunch held in Rice Hall. (on hold during the pandemic)
Mission and Outreach
Our team has unanimously decided to focus their efforts to organizations which are more local to our church, thereby there can be more physical participation rather than just writing a check. This year has been so different due to the pandemic, but we still were able to conduct a Carolina Hill food prep in January 2020. Thanksgiving bags for the Food Pantry and Christmas Giving Tree for Carolina Hill were executed in a different manner with the help of Sign Up Genius and exercising safe, healthy protocol for drop off of all donated goods.
Our team members, along with the entire congregation, have missed the active participation this year with the many local organizations which we serve such as Father Bill’s, Mainspring, South Shore Peer Recovery, Career Closet (Interfaith Social Services), and Maura’s Hopeful Mission. Even though we could not participate physically, FTCC’s M&O continues to support these organizations monetarily. Below is a complete list of all the organizations we supported this year:
Mass UCC (OCWM)
