Serve at FPC
"For Even The Son Of Man Came Not To Be Served, But To Serve." -Mark 10:45
At FPC, we believe that following Christ means serving others. As we serve one another and the community around us with humility and love, we reflect Christ’s heart, use the gifts He has given us, and participate in His work through the church. Whether you have a few hours to give or are looking for a place to serve regularly, there are opportunities for everyone to get involved. We’d love to help you find a place to serve.




Welcome Team
FPC seeks to be a welcoming church community in downtown Macon committed to helping people know Christ and make Him known. A vital part of being a welcoming church is offering a warm greeting and friendly face to all who walk through our doors.
The Welcome Team seeks to welcome guests and encourage our congregation as we gather for worship and special events. A simple greeting may seem small, but it communicates something greater: you are welcome here!
Serving on the Welcome Team requires no special skills—just a willingness to jump in and help. We provide the information and resources you need to serve well. Getting involved is simple—just sign up!

Jeremiah Project
The Jeremiah Project is our men's service ministry, inspired by Jeremiah 29:7. On the fourth Saturday of each month (typically 8:00 AM–12:00 PM), men gather to serve our church, neighbors, and community through hands-on projects that meet practical needs while demonstrating the love of Christ.
We regularly partner with organizations such as Sleep in Heavenly Peace, Rebuilding Macon, Habitat for Humanity, and Wesley Glen, while also caring for needs within our own church family.
No special skills or experience are required, just a willingness to serve. We'd love for you to join us as we seek the welfare of our city and glorify Christ together.

Women's Ministry
Service Opportunities with our Women's Ministry
Meal Trains
One of the simplest ways we care for one another is by providing meals during seasons of joy and difficulty. Women’s Ministry coordinates meal trains for families welcoming new babies, those who are sick, and those walking through grief. These meals are a tangible way to show the love and care of Christ to our church family.
Mentoring
We believe women grow best when we walk alongside one another. We are always looking for women who are willing to invest in the lives of others through encouragement, prayer, and discipleship. Consider using your experiences and wisdom to mentor another woman in our church family.
Special Event Support
Many of our women help create welcoming and meaningful experiences at FPC through decorating, setup, and behind-the-scenes support for events like the Equip Conference, Missions Conference, and Women’s Conference. These opportunities are a wonderful way to use your creativity and serve alongside others.
