Discussion topics include: anger, strength, work, finances, role-models and integrity just to name a few. This group meets the 1st and 3rd Wednesday evening of the month at 7:30 p.m. at FEPC.

**We are always in need of lunch providers. Simple lunches are fine. The lunch not only nourishes our workers but is part of our ministry and fellowship with the homeowners, sometimes even neighbors, and extras are left with the homeowner. It is a great outreach opportunity and lunch providers are invited to stay to eat with us and share in the fellowship. If interested, please contact Sue Obenschain at 610-286-5013.
For questions and/or further details contact: Roy Adler 610-416-5996 or Hob Pusey 610-506-8170

CANNED FOOD COLLECTION FOR THE SALVATION ARMY FOOD BANK
THIS IS AN ONGOING "SERVE" IN OUR DISCIPLESHIP PROCESS HERE AT FAIRVIEW. WORSHIP, CONNECT, KNOW AND SERVE.
We had 38 kids attend VBS on Wednesday the June 21st thru Friday, June 23rd. That is a 20% increase over last year’s attendance. Praise God from Whom
All Blessings Flow.
We are so excited to tell you that once again this year the kids brought canned goods to contribute to our donations to the food bank in Glenmoore.
Please do a spring/summer cleaning of your pantry and cupboards and bring in your donations. It’s amazing what is hiding in those cupboards and the grocery stores always have great buys on pasta and peanut butter.
Thank you from Val, Bobbie and Jo-Ellen
