Congregational Gathering, Sep 1, 11:30am

We are a church that prides itself on being open and welcoming to all as Christ would have us do.  Last year, FPC held an “active shooter” training with the Santa Fe Police Department.  A number of recommendations were made about security on a Sunday morning, one of them being that we lock the front doors shortly after the service in the Sanctuary commences.  Our ushers and the Session are concerned that this is counter to our all are welcome message.  To broaden this conversation, Pastor Harry is asking that you remain in the Sanctuary until the Postlude concludes, to share your thoughts with us.

Harry has gained more insights on this issue from the gun violence prevention gathering held at Ghost Ranch this week. We hope you can join in this important conversation.
