Let the Watch Party Begin
3/22/2020
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your heart and minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7).
What powerful words those are in the midst of our current lives! The temptation to give in to worry and fear is all around us, but the Word of God is steadfast and a sure foundation!
As you have hopefully heard by now, our in-person gatherings are moving to on-line gatherings for the rest of March. This morning we invite you to watch online this powerful word that will encourage your faith! Pastor David has said that this is probably the best sermon he has ever heard!
Here are the links directly to a short intro from Pastor David and the sermon he'd like to share with you:

Everything's changing - God Remains
3/17/2020
Hello Church,
Due to the current Covid-19 outbreak and the suggested/mandatory regulations being provided by our state officials as well as from President Trump, Family Life Assembly will not be hosting our regular in-person gatherings from March 17th-March 31st. Please read President Trumps “15 Days to Slow the Spread” publication – you may find the link on the FLA website. We will be live streaming our Sunday services. (Please watch us live on FacebookSunday March 22nd and 29th @ 10:30am).
This current Covid-19 outbreak provides an opportunity to examine our own faith. Isn’t it interesting that we have just been studying the book of James? “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” (James 1:2-4). Remember that trials that come our way are for our benefit to grow. As we have been studying the book of James, we saw in the first few verses that it is not a time to be afraid, withdraw or become fear stricken. I encourage you to persevere and to “Plod On!” Then, God will grow our faith!
Here are some practical things that you should know during our current season.
1. Family life Assembly will continue to be the church, and show the world what the Church of Christ is all about!
2. We will be having members in our church connecting with you via the phone to see how you are doing and pray for any of your needs. We will be utilizing our time towards building each other up during this outbreak. We hope we have everyone’s contact info, so if you haven’t heard from us you can give us a call. Our office hours may change a little so we may not get back to you right away, but will try to do our best to connect with you. For those of you who don’t have my phone number you can call or text me at 360.878.0945 or email me at . Also, feel to contact our staff as well.
3. We will go "live" online with a unique and different approach to services than we've ever used before. This Sunday, March 22, I am going to introduce a video that will cause you to stand up and shout! It is one of the most memorable messages I have ever heard in my lifetime. So this Sunday, make a cup of coffee, sit down, relax, and be exposed to fact that God’s Church is alive and well! You may want to invite someone over to share this incredible message of faith. Call another family from the church or invite a neighbor over. Listen together, pray, and encourage each other!
4. If you know of someone who is considered "high risk" offer to shop, clean, mow their lawn and/or just be there for them!!
5. Give! We will continue to do ministry and meet needs in our body and community. Also, don’t forget to give financially. You can either give online, mail a check to the church or drop off your offerings. I know that some of you may be in a place where your hours are cut and you might not be able to give; so I am asking that those of you who are able to consider giving extra.
6. Pray for our nation, and pray for the body believers to stand strong during this outbreak.
In His Shadow,
Pastor David Ristow

Sharing the President's encouragement to help slow the spread of Coronavirus.
Family Life Assembly exists to be an evangelical Holy Spirit filled and empowered church that is genuinely living and convincingly sharing the good news of Jesus Christ to the city of Anacortes and surrounding region. We seek to make disciples that look like Jesus Christ, loving how He loves, doing what He does and going wherever He sends us.
At Family Life Assembly, children are important to us! It is our desire to provide the best possible learning activities and worship experience for your child. We believe that these experiences will bring to your child a greater knowledge of Jesus, and a desire to know Him better. We are partners with you in your child’s spiritual development.
