BeSent Celebration

October 25 - 29, 2023

BeSent Celebration is an opportunity for FBC to bring 13 mission partners and church planters on campus to love, support, and encourage. By creating a culture of missional living within our church family, we hope to multiply missions opportunities in our church.
