contents and direct links to each day's schedules

Sing-Along, Chapel, Lectures, and a few other events will be on Facebook Live and on the FNCA YouTube channel, running simultaneous in both places. You can watch them and post comments in either place. The presenters, however, will only be monitoring the event on Facebook Live and will be responding to questions and comments there during the event.

Please note that you don't have to be on Facebook to participate there. Just click the link under the event in the schedule below. If you do have a Facebook page, you will be able to post comments and question for the presenters. Everyone will be able to see these comments and questions responses from the presenter. You will be able to watch these events later on both our Facebook page and on our YouTube channel.

Almost all other events will be on our Standard Zoom Link which will be emailed to everyone on our mailing list the week before vFNCA. If you are not on our mailing list and would like to participate, please contact: <moderator@fryeburg.org>.

* = This event will be cast from our Standard Zoom Link to Facebook Live and our FNCA YouTube channel, so you can participate on Zoom and watch it again later.

The Afternoon Book Club meets Mon/Wed/Fri. The book selection is The Holy Center: A Biblical Path to the Presence Within by Rev. Dorothea Harvey. It is available to read free online at the link above. Or you can contact our Religious Program Coordinator Rev. Susannah Currie ahead of time and she will send you a free physical copy.

Afternoon Arts & Crafts (Tue/Thu/Sat) and a few of the Evening Activities will require you to get some things ahead of time. There is a Supplies List at each such event below.

Sparks Games and Flames Games will be on Jitsi, with the link available through the Moderator of the Day (M.o.D.). It will be the same link throughout the entire week, so you will only need to get it ahead of time once from the M.o.D. in order to participate all week long.
