| What
started as a mission of Lamar Baptist Church in 1959 has now become
spiritual family existing to move people to LIFE
in Christ one step at a time...together. We do this by valueing
four things: LifeSURRENDERED by faith to Truth,
LifeLINKED through relationships into family,
LifeCHANGED through belief into obedience,
and LifeSHARED by service to our world.
Over
the years, God has led the people of Fairway Baptist Church to the
crossroads of commitment many times. Project Fairway: Growing God’s
Kingdom is just one more opportunity for us to come along side God
in His plans for our church.
Over
6 years ago, the vision for our Family Life Center began. Needing
more educational, multi-purpose, and congregational gathering space,
our church family once again trusted God and stepped out in faith
by committing to build our FLC. Thus, “Project Fairway”
was born—the three year stewardship campaign God led Fairway
through to finance the construction of our building. At the close
of the 3 year period, over $400,000 had been given by the Fairway
Family.
Since
it’s construction, the Family Life Center has become the focal
point for almost everything that takes place at Fairway. Our current
ministries for kids, youth & adults would be impossible without
the FLC.
Now
we go to the next step. We move forward with thankful hearts for
the blessings God has poured out upon us! We trust God again to
lead us through a 3 year stewardship campaign to retire our debt
and keep our ministries moving forward. |
