ALTERNATE GIVING OPTIONS

How many of your regular financial commitments -- utility bills, insurance, health club dues, etc. -- do you now pay electronically? Probably a lot. So why not automate your tithes and offerings, as well? Save yourself the hassle of writing a check every week or month by setting up e-giving on the FEPC website (www.fairviewepc.org/give) or by having your bank mail it to the church office.


Opportunities to Know

SMALL GROUP STUDIES FOR ALL AGES

Begin at 9:15 A.M. on Sunday Mornings.

Sunday morning small groups will be on break until, January 8th, 2017.

SUNDAY MORNING ADULT STUDY

Have you ever thought that when we pray, our prayers reflect an intimate communication with God and is at the heart of our relationship with Him? Perhaps you think I want to pray, but I don't know how to pray. Perhaps, you feel embarrassed or even intimidated to pray. Sometimes, we just never had anyone teach us to pray. Jesus' own disciples might have felt that way too because that's why they asked Him, "Lord, teach us to pray." If this is you, then consider joining our adult class on Sunday mornings at 9:15 a.m. in Fellowship Hall for a six-week DVD study on prayer.

NEW MEN’S SMALL GROUP 

Our newest men's group, M.O.R.A. (Men of Retirement Age), has sprouted.   The group is using the book titled “God’s Words of Life for Men”. This book combines scriptures and inspirational thoughts on a wide variety of topics that men are faced with every day.  Discussion topics include:  anger, strength, work, finances, role-models and integrity just to name a few.  This group will meet the 2nd and 4th Wednesday evening of the month beginning January 11, 2017 at 7:30 p.m. at FEPC.  For additional information contact Don at or at 610-942-8721.
