Families Count - Service Opportunity
2026-02-18 17:30 - 19:00, 2026-02-25 17:30 - 19:00 | FPC Jackson Campus, 1390 North State Street, Jackson, MS, 39202, United States
Families Count — Service Opportunity Beginning January 14
Looking for an opportunity to serve right here in our local community? Our next Families Count class begins January 14 during Midweek. We are in need of a few volunteers to provide childcare or transportation. Please contact Jo Lynn Mayfield (jolynnm@fpcjackson.org or 769-524-5121) to get involved.
Families Count equips local churches to walk alongside families facing separation due to financial strain, substance abuse, mental health challenges, and other pressures. When children enter foster care, often for more than a year, the lack of a stable home increases the risk of long-term social, academic, and emotional challenges. God designed the family as a place of safety and healing, and Families Count helps churches support families with the care, guidance, and hope needed for restoration.

Missions Conference Opening Session with Kevin DeYoung
2026-02-21 17:00 - 18:15 | FPC Jackson Campus, 1390 North State Street, Jackson, MS, 39202, United States
Saturday, February 21
5-6:15 p.m.
Sanctuary
Nursery available for children age 3 and younger
The Missions Conference will open with a new event this year, featuring keynote speaker, Kevin DeYoung. Dr. DeYoung will preach on Lord of the Nations (Genesis 10), helping us see how God’s authority, promises, and redemptive purposes extend to every people group.
Often called the “Table of Nations,” this chapter reminds us that the diversity of peoples and places is not an accident of history but part of God’s sovereign design. Long before the call of Abraham or the sending of the apostles, Scripture shows us a God who rules over every nation and who is steadily unfolding His plan among them.
All are invited to gather for worship, reflection, and the kickoff of this year’s conference, as we consider how God is advancing His kingdom and how He may be calling each of us to participate in His work among the nations.

Beginning February 10, come wrestle with a God whose love disciplines, pursues, and brings rebellious sons home. Register below to let us know you’re coming and to pay for breakfast.
