Childcare
You can assume that if there is a ministry program
going on at the church that childcare is provided for newborns through age 3.
Caring volunteers who are trained and prepared to help you and your children staff
the nursery and toddler room. |
Children's
Sunday School
There is a class for every child
from age two through grade 6 in our children's Sunday school division. There is
a heavy emphasis on Bible teaching and memorization. A team of teachers who use
published curriculum from Scripture Press teaches the classes. Many of the groups
have extra activities from time to time outside of the class time.
Childrens
Church
During the second half of the 10:45 Worship
Service, children ages 4 and 5 that are not in Kindergarten are invited to attend
Beginners' Church. Those in Kindergarten through grade 2 may attend Junior Church.
These ministries are scheduled so that children can begin to experience worship
with their parents and other adults.
TeamKid
Wednesday nights @ 6:45 pm Starts September 5, 2007!
We are excited about
our "new and improved" TeamKID lineup. TeamKID is a fun, high-energy
ministry that encourages kids to know Jesus Christ and grow in a relationship
with Him, a great follow-up for our Five-Day Clubs ministry.
"New
and Improved", you ask? Oh yeah! We have added an awards opportunity to our
TeamKID program. Through scripture memory, attendance, and completing the weekly
take home paper, the kids can earn points toward winning a trophy at the end of
the season. Who doesn't love to get a trophy? Invite all your friends!
 |
Five-Day
Clubs Over the past number of summers we have conducted
a neighborhood based, Five-Day Club instead of a centralized VBS. We schedule
at several different clubs in various homes for the same week. The ministry culminates
in a rally where all the clubs come together.

Kids
In Missions
On the last Sunday of the month children
age 4 through 6th grade are dismissed from the Worship service to attend a special
missions focus time for children.

Young
Adult Fellowship
Good coffee, great friends, even better Bible discussion
- just a few a reasons why YAF is so much fun. College may impact the mind, but
YAF transforms the heart. So mark down these dates young adult students and workers.

Sunday
morning Bible Studies are under the direction of our Elders. The focus is on Bible
study and life application.

at convenient times for those in the group. New groups are announced in the weekly
News & Notes and monthly Newslink.
Women's
Community Bible Studies Sit down with a good cup
of coffee. Chat with
other women. Get to know God's point of view on what life and living is all about.
Make time to feed your spirit. We offer studies on Wednesday
evenings and Thursday morning.
Two studies are offered on Wednesday Evenings
from 6:30-8:15pm The
Benefits of Waiting, and a study on the Book of John. Join us for our
kick-off on September 5th with a coffee and dessert fellowship. |  |
Four
studies are offered on Thursday mornings. Join us for a brunch on September 6th.
At that time, we will present an overview of each of the studies offered: The
Benefits of Waiting, the Book of John, The Beatitudes and
Loved by God.
Alliance Women in Prayer and Missions
A group of women meet monthly to study different areas and
people of the world and how the church is reaching out to them in so many ways.
It is a wonderful stimulant to prayer and action for missionaries around the world.
Jail
Ministry
Fairlawn Alliance Church offers
outreach opportunites to the Summit County Jail to share the word of God with
those currently in prison.
Men's
Ministries
Saturday Morning Bible Study and Prayer: An open group
of men meet on Saturday mornings (see Calendar
for latest times) for a time of interaction over the Word of God and to pray for
and with each other. "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."
Accountability
Small Groups
All of our men are encouraged to be involved in an
accountability and prayer group. These groups consist of 3 to 4 men who meet on
a regular basis for prayer and mutual encouragement.
World-wide
Missions
| While
there are many different and effective mission organizations and ministries, Fairlawn
Alliance is committed to giving priority to the more than 1000 missionaries that
are sent throughout the world by the Christian & Missionary Alliance (C&MA).
A brochure entitled "Questions People Ask about Alliance Missions" explains
the C&MA's methodology and rationale for reaching the lost around the world.
Both of our present pastors and their families have served overseas as missionaries.
|  |
Annual World
Missions Conference
In early October at least three of the C&MA's finest missionaries
are assigned to our church for a weeklong concentration of missions awareness
and support. This is one of the highlights of our church year.
Short-Term
Missions Trips
Several of our people have taken
7 to 10 day trips to partner with missionaries and national pastors.
Great Commission Fund (GCF)
Financial
contributions to the GCF are forwarded directly to the C&MA national office
where 87% of those funds go to directly support various ministries. The remaining
funds are used for administration.
Wednesday Night Prayer Time
The
Worship Center is dedicated to the ministry of prayer beginning at 6:15pm on Wednesdays.
Quiet music plays so that individuals can meet with God and seek his face. At
7:00 a bit more structure is added to the atmosphere and we take time to seek
the Lord together by praising and worshipping Him, as well as to bring before
Him our needs and concerns.
Pastoral Prayer
Our pastoral staff
members are always available to pray with or for you. If there is someone who
you believe would appreciate a pastoral call, even if they are not a part of our
family of faith, please let one of the pastors know.
Prayer
Chain
There is an organized telephone prayer chain
that can be activated for emergency or critical prayer concerns. Contact one of
the pastors or the church office.
