GOOD WORKS WORKDAY

OUR GOOD WORKS TEAM IS NOW SUPPORTING HOMES IN NORTHERN CHESTER COUNTY!!

Our normal workday is the first Saturday of the month.

Our partner home is here in Glenmoore. We are working out of the NCC Warehouse in St. Peter’s Village. Our workday begins at the St. Peter's warehouse at 8:00 and we complete our workday by 3 PM.

We would love to have you join our team. Many hands make light work. You only need to bring a willing heart. Tools and materials are provided. Women and teens are also welcome to join us.

The Team meets for breakfast & fellowship at 7:00 and then goes to the NCC Warehouse in St. Peters Village at 8 AM.

BAGEL SUNDAY

Anyone interested in sponsoring a Bagel Sunday the last Sunday of any month, please see Christy Pomager on Sunday, email her a  or use the sign up genius here.


CANNED FOOD COLLECTION

Fairview EPC participates in the food bank run by The Salvation Army and Faith Alliance Church in Glenmoore. My contact there, and the people who pick up the food here at Fairview, tell me that for Thanksgiving and Christmas the number of needy families soars to 250 from 60. I know everyone is really busy and like me you probably race thru the food store ASAP. Just a little ticker to say, notice the pasta fo 88 cents a box, or the peanut butter when it's on sale or even tuna fish in the can. Just pick up something each trip if you can and bring it to Fairview on Sunday morning. That would be soooo appreciated. We'll make sure it gets to Faith Alliance. Families visit their church every Friday. They are lined up for opening.

This is an ongoing "serve" in our discipleship process here at Fairview. Worship, Connect, Know and Serve.

Thank you.
