Alan and Eugenia started attending FCC in the fall of 2010 and are fully committed to the idea of "missional living". They hope that through their missional action and volunteer time, they can reach a part of the community that would otherwise never have interactions with the church. Eugenia and Alan help lead the Elevate tutoring space which has thrived since its inception during Covid. It gives them a way to build bridges with the students and parents of our community through academia and learning. Moreover, Alan and Eugenia are busy raising two kids. If they're not going to sports activities, they also enjoy taking their dog to their neighborhood park for fellowship and community with other dog lovers. This has become a great way for Alan and Eugenia to build bridges with their neighbors!
