Please prayerfully consider being the Relay For Life Leader for our church. Add this to your prayer list and we will see where God leads us. If anyone is interested please contact us under the contact us section, on the right. I don't want to put any pressure on anyone but we will need to come to a decision before December 7th. Which is their Kick-Off Open House. The leader will also need to have access to the computer/Internet. They meet once a month until the event in April. Please know that if you feel called to this position it is a wonderful cause that our church will stand behind you and your efforts 100%. This is not a one man team and we are here to lift you up and support you.
Relay Mission Statement:
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life
represents the hope that those lost to cancer
will never be forgotten, that those who
face cancer will be supported and
that one day cancer will be eliminated.

What in the World is a BLOG?
What is a blog and how does it work? Many of you may ask yourselves this. I know I did the first time I heard about blogging. It's a place on the Internet, much like a web page, where you can share and enrich communications.
You may ask how reading the things posted here will enrich communications? If used properly this BLOG is so much more than a place to come and find out what is going on at Fairfield United Methodist Church. Please take time to notice, that at the end of every post there is a comment section. You are allowed and encouraged to add your thoughts and feelings. After all each of us make up this wonderful church we unite our selves in. Before you know it everyone is checking in to see what has been posted and who has commented. It's addicting, I can tell you that first hand. When you have a cause as good as the one we serve being addicted to it is a great thing.
The word will spread fast, soon everyone is inviting friends and families to join in on topics, polls, to view our latest photo's or to listen to Rev. Susan's Sermons. Then this little church in Denver, North Carolina is serving much more than it's members. The word has spread and people from all over are being blessed by what we have to offer. You never know who we will touch or what great blessing can come from this. As we all know; our Lord is so much greater than the four walls of Fairfield UMC.
Please read through our church Blog. To the right of this BLOG you can find many valuable tools.
Under: Hear Rev. Susan's Sermons click on Fairfield UMC Podcasts listen to a sermon you may have missed. Or invite a friend who you knew might be touched by a previous sermon.
Under: Keep Me Connected you can sign up to receive an update right in your e-mail in box each time this blog is updated.
You can also find our Sunday School and Worship Schedule, Contact Us Information and just for fun a monthly Poll.
Under: Blog Archive you can look up previous post by month and post title. A quick way to find out something specific you are looking for.
You will find all kinds of information here. And much more than information, you will find a community of believers who are united in one great mission. If you have visited before and never left a comment please do. I would love to know who's visiting, and hear what you have to say! I challenge each of you to communicate here, really reach out and allow this to be an enriching experience for all who look on.

Annual BBQ Success...Thank You
First and foremost I want to thank the good Lord above. Our missions and projects would never be a success without you at the core of everything we do. Second, all the church comers of Fairfield UMC. I am continuously amazed at your willingness to serve and reach out. It's the most wonderful feeling to be in a church with such a dedicated family of believers. Your service is a continuous symbol of your faith and love. Last but most defiantly not least, the community our church is grounded in. Your support is always a blessing...
Thank you men who cooked the best BBQ and chicken in town again, all night long.
Thank you all workers. Those who collected money and greeted our guest with the loving hospitality that you gave. Everyone who worked behind the scenes to prepare everything it took to make this mission a success. You will never be forgotten or unmentioned.
Thank you workers on the day of our BBQ. You gave so willingly of your time for service to the Lord, your church and community.

Annual BBQ Success...
Thank you for all who prepared the most delicious deserts
and those who served them.
We had the largest variety I have ever seen.
Of course we could never forget about the people who came to fellowship and eat. Our success would not have been possible
without you. Thank You for Supporting our Church...
As you can see it took a lot of people working together for one cause to equal a successful BBQ.
Our Thanks cannot be mentioned enough!
I am so proud to be a member of Fairfield United Methodist Church

What a beautiful view of our church. Thanks to Van Barker for his creative eye.
Sunday Van shared this vision with me, so I captured a new church photo for us.

Hospitality Event Postponed...
Well, wouldn't you know it?
You all responded with such great enthusiasm and I want to thank you for that.
Unfortunately, the district is postponing the event. They were hoping for some more participation from others. But looks like only Bethel and Fairfield (and a few others) were interested in hospitality! Good for you.
So, instead, rest this Sunday! We will host it again sometime soon!
