MISSION TRIP to Hartford, Connecticut -March 23-27, 2016 Pray for Danny & Shannon Kiefel, Jill Sisk, & Joann Johnson as they prepare for this trip to help with Easter outreach events with Logan & Katie Loveday MARCH WMU/LADIES MISSION PROJECT: One of the two couples we support as church planters through our budget and prayers is Logan & Katie Loveday who serve in Connecticut. Katie and Logan are expecting their 2nd child. It’s a Boy, Lawson Edward. They have an almost 2 year old daughter, Emery. We have a mission team going up in late March to assist them with Easter weekend outreach events. We would like to send as many small gift items and gift cards for diapers with the team as possible who will present the gifts to the Loveday’s while there as a small shower. They buy diapers at Wal-Mart and CVS, as Katie is an “Extreme Couponer.” A $10.00 CVS or Wal-Mart gift card would buy a pack of diapers, or a small boy gown/sleeper which would be small enough to pack and send as well. There will be a basket in the back hallway for the baby items, or bring any gift cards or cash donations to our March WMU meeting or give to Jill Sisk or Jan Childers. Fairview Baptist Church has been asked to provide 25 bath towels for the North Spartan Association Health Kits. If you are willing to purchase towels for this project, please place them in the Haiti basket in the back hall. Collection deadline will be Wednesday, March 30th. MISSION PROJECT: The Mission Friends, GA’s, & RA’s are working to collect 200 jump ropes for Jennifer, Kadence, & Cade Holmes to take with them as they go on a mission trip to Haiti in April. Senior Adult Event March 19th Buses will leave the church @ 4:30 Sign-up Sheet in the back hall Ladies Bible Study: 6:30-8:00 PM Wednesday nights: March 9th, 16th, 23rd, & 30th Preacher Ty will be in revival at New Life Baptist Church in Union, SC from March 13-16, 2017 FROM THE PASTOR’S PEN I hope you have had a good February. I know I did because, on February 15th, the Lord blessed us with twin grandbabies: Walker Luke and Mollie Grace. Even though they are both in NICU, we are thankful they are doing well. The Lord has touched them and they are improving day by day. Praise the Lord!! I appreciate your continued prayers for them and for Anna and Luke as well. March is a busy month with a lot of exciting things going on. One of those is March Gladness. I pray that teachers and their class members are working hard to get as many in Sunday School during the whole month. Last year, on high attendance Sunday, we had 212. I know we need to be busy every week trying to get people in Sunday school and worship, not just during the month of March, but it is a good motivational time for church growth here at Fairview. MARCH GLADNESS 9:30 AM Each Sunday I was glad when they said unto me, Let is go into the house of the LORD. Psalm 122:1 March 6, 2015 Fruitful Day March 13, 2015 Family Day March 20, 2015 Friend Day March 27, 2015 Faith Day Don’t forget about our Easter Sunrise Services the last Sunday of the month.

Fairview Church Goal $12,500.00 Filled with heart, humor, and wit, WAR ROOM follows Tony and Elizabeth Jordan, a couple who seemingly have it all-great jobs, a beautiful daughter, their dream home. But appearances can be deceiving. In reality, their marriage has become a war zone and their daughter is collateral damage. With guidance from Miss Clara, an older, wiser woman, Elizabeth discovers she can start fighting for her family instead of against them. As the power of prayer and Elizabeth's newly energized faith transform her life, will Tony join the fight and become the man he knows he needs to be? Together, their real enemy doesn't have a prayer.
