We have established a way we could notify the entire church family in case of a death, an extreme emergency or a churchwide event.  We send out an e-mail to all who ask to be included.  This is only be used for deaths of church members (or immediate family members), extreme emergencies or as a reminder for churchwide events.  This will not be a daily prayer guide or a prayer list.  Your name will be on the list only if you notify us to add it.

We already have a list of people who receive the weekly Wednesday night prayer guide through e-mail.  You could also be added to that list, if you desire.

Please notify us by e-mail: fbcr@fbcrichland.org  letting us know you would like to be included in the

1. Churchwide notification list     and/or     2.  Wednesday night prayer guide list

In the future, if you want your name removed, simply e-mail or call us.
