New Members and
Prospective Members Lunch
On Sunday, February 21 we would like to treat you to a
FREE lunch after the 11AM service in the Fellowship Hall.
While you are eating you will hear from several of our
ministry leaders in regards to their responsibilities at
Fairview and how you can engage and serve here at
Fairview. We also have a special free gift for those who
attend the lunch. Our goal for our new and prospective
members is for you to get the “big picture” of what it
means to be a faithful and fruitful church member
according to Scripture. All we ask is for you to sign
up at one of our Welcome Centers. We look forward to
seeing you there!
