Virtual worship and other church "gatherings" continue via zoom, social media, and other virtual formats. Access weekly worship services, participate in Fellowship of the Bean, check-in for Youth Fellowship, or join weekly Bible Study on Tuesdays (2:00-3:00 pm). For questions, email the office. Visit our facebook, follow the FPC Facebook Group. Learn of mission opportunities. Consider ACT initiatives and email FPC Action. Even though the physical church campus is "closed" to meetings, the virtual church goes on! Sign-up for Rev. Dr. Lisa Rzepka's congregational emails.
When Jesus said, “Follow Me,” doubtful Facebook was in mind! But right now, we can use it to keep connected. The FPC Facebook page now has a Facebook group which makes interactive communication simpler. Friends and members are encouraged to (1) sign in (or new users, create a Facebook account); (2) go to FPC Group; (3) Once on the group page, click “Follow;" and (4) Check-in at your convenience. See what members are posting. Chime in yourself! Let us use our Facebook Group as a way to uplift each other until we are face-to-face again. Share activities to keep occupied. Recommend a book. Post a photo, prayer, or meditation. Write something funny! Send a video that others might enjoy. The FPC Annapolis Group can be a place for fellowship, support, encouragement. Miss your church family? Find fellowship, follow First... on Facebook! Questions.
To donate a plant in memory or honor of your loved ones, please remit $20 per plant online. Then, separately, please email the church office your name, the name of the honoree(s), number of plants, and relationship ("my aunt," friend, parent, etc).

The church participates in a summer softball league with other local churches. The season consists of eight games on Mondays or Wednesdays (about one per week) in June and July. Games are at 6:30 pm and move quickly due to game rules. Our team, the "Dukes of Gloucester," play at the fields behind the Annapolis Middle School. We have a regular roster of about two dozen players and just as many fans. To join the fun, email Captain Vince Panella. Go Dukes!
