To teach the Word of God so the church will know what they believe and why they believe it.
To inspire the church to work out the Word of God in their lives to be truly Christ-like.
To encourage the church to share the Word of God daily through mentoring, teaching, and Godly counsel.

My Name is Becky Robison. I have been a member at FBC since 2012, and I now work as the secretary for the church. I am a retired teacher, and I’m married to a retired teacher. We have 3 children and 10 grandchildren. I stay busy with the secretarial job, AWANA, crafting and spoiling my grandkids. I came to know Christ in 1980, my senior year in college. I am grateful for what he has done for me and my family. I count my blessings daily, and as Seph Schlueter sings in Counting My Blessings, I can't count that high.
