The
Fairlawn Alliance Church is a fully accredited church with The Christian
and Missionary Alliance with a national office in Colorado Springs,
CO. Rather than thinking of themselves as another denomination
the C&MA considers itself to be an alliance of some
2000 local congregations in the US committed to knowing and exalting
Jesus Christ and to completing His Great Commission.

A Vision for Ministry
"Consecrate yourselves
for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you."
Joshua 3:5
The
vision of our future is shaped and formed by what God is already
putting before us as opportunities to Honor Him - our Lord. We are
not in a position where we have to "cook-up" a vision.
The vision of opportunities to minister and expand the Kingdom of
God is much more descriptive than prescriptive. It is the continuation
and an extension of the vibrant ministry that's already in place.
Our vision can be grouped according to Jesus' commission in Acts
1:8: "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon
you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and
to the ends of the earth."
