WELCOME to East Fairview Church!  We’re glad you came and hope you a warm welcome. Relax and worship…you’re among friends.  We hope our fellowship, singing, prayers, and study of God’s Word will be a blessing to God and an encouragement to you.  

The offering is a weekly opportunity for our members and regular attendees to give tithes and gifts support the ministry of East Fairview Church.  Please record your visit in the black attendance folder located in your row. 

The church nursery (which is available for children up to age 4) is located in the main hallway, past the restrooms, on the left.  Please feel free to entrust your children to us for this hour. Children’s bulletins and other resources are available on the Children’s shelf in the back corner of the sanctuary.

We celebrate the birth of Rylin Charles Snavely, born on March 21st!  His parents are Matthew Snavely & Tiffany Schoffstall.  His grandparents are Larry & Donna Snavely.  Please keep this family in your prayers. 

NOAC 2011 pamphlets are available in our revolving rack in the lobby.  If you are at least 50 years old, please take one and find out more about NOAC (National Older Adult Conference).  NOAC is being held September 5-9, 2011 at beautiful Lake Junaluska Conference and Retreat Center in North Carolina. 

One or Two Volunteers are needed at the Manheim Food Bank.  Volunteers would fill bags with the food and restock the shelves.  You would probably be needed only one or two

Wednesday mornings (9:00am for about an hour) per month.  Other teams of volunteers will be responsible for the other Wednesdays.  For more information about this ministry opportunity, please contact Pastor Jimm. 

Looking Ahead...

*Love Feast and Communion is planned for Thursday, April 21st at 7:00pm.  Set this date on your calendar as an important evening of faith for you individually and for our faith community here at East Fairview Church.

*Easter Sunrise Service is being planned for Easter Sunday, April 24th beginning at 6:00am.  This service will take place on the cemetery side of the church and everyone is welcome.
