As we head into the time of transition here at FDP, we wanted to let you know who to contact when you need to talk with someone about what is going on at the church. Tiara Payne, our administrative assistant, will continue to be available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. You can reach Tiara by calling the church office, 432-8029, or emailing her at adminasst@faithdesperes.org. Also, if you have information that should be published in the Sunday bulletin or posted on the weekly blog, please get that to Tiara by noon on Wednesdays.
