Welcome!

We are happy to have you worship with us today. Here in our Fairmont family it is our goal to bring you closer to Jesus in a loving environment. If you are looking to make this your church home, we invite you to speak to one of our Elders as you exit the doors of the sanctuary. It is our hope that Fairmont can be a place where we all proclaim Jesus, and prepare people for His soon return. We Study 9:30 am – 10:30 am

Today’s flowers are presented in celebration of Ben Smith’s birthday. “Happy 18th birthday to our son and brother, Ben. You are a strong man of God. Always keep God first in your life and he will never let you down. He will always have your back.

We wish you a life full of love, blessings and prayer. Have a wonderful birthday! Love, mom, dad, and Lindsey”.

The new flower calendar for 2018 is now posted in the hallway. You are invited to sign up to sponsor flowers for the new year. The cost is $80.

Mid-week Prayer Meeting will be on Wednesday at 7:00 PM. We are studying The Acts of the Apostles. This week’s chapter is “The Revelation”, pages 580-592.

The Fairmont Men’s Ministry Team would like to invite everyone to join them for a Stockton Heat hockey game tomorrow. The cost is $18 per person. Please RSVP with the Doug Colucci.

Attention Missions Committee members: there will be a Missions Committee potluck this afternoon after the worship service.

Sabbath School quarterlies are viewable on your computer or electronic device at ssnet.org. You can also download the SSQ app at the App Store or Google Play.

We are in need of a funeral reception coordinator. If you are interested in this position, please contact the church office or Pastor Tracy Baerg.

Pistachios are now available in the church office at $7 per 1 lb. bag. $1 goes to the church library.

If you brought food in a crock pot to last week’s fellowship lunch, please check to see if you have the correct lid. Debra Griffin has discovered that the lid she took home is too small for her pot, so someone now has one that is too large. If your meals just haven’t been the same lately, perhaps this is why. Contact Debra to get your lid back.

Don’t miss Lodi Academy’s Renaissance Faire on Sunday, March 11 at the Academy grounds. Hours are from 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM. Admission is free. There will be food sales, games, prizes, and much more.
