Schedule of Monthly Worship Services 2008-2009

"For the past several years, coming together with the other faithful FAPC members to lead the men & women of the Bowery Mission in worship has helped me to mature in my own faith and understanding of God’s work in our world. As we share God’s word together and the men share their testimonies, I continue to be humbled and awed at how and where God chooses to reveal Himself and His will for our lives. If you choose to participate in this meaningful outreach, you must be prepared to receive much more than you give!" - Alina Lee

For over 40 years, FAPC has been providing a worship service at 6:00 pm on the fourth Sunday of the month at this historic mission in lower Manhattan. Founded in 1879, the Bowery is the third oldest gospel mission in the US. It is a place where homeless men can begin life again empowered by Jesus’ message of salvation and God’s love for them. Volunteer opportunities including: singing, playing an instrument, reading a lesson, praying aloud or in private, serving the homeless their evening meal, or simply ministering with your presence. Total time commitment is 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm. There are no dues, fees, or meetings to attend. This simple act of joining with another faith community for a Sunday service allows us to be the hands & feet of Christ to those struggling daily without food, shelter, or hope.
