KINGDOM POTENTIAL
At Fairgreen we are putting our faith into action in four main ways:
These areas illustrate our priorities, our program, and our growth as God leads us toward our kingdom potential.
- WORSHIP
- INTENTIONAL FAITH DEVELOPMENT
- MISSION AND OUTREACH
- SUPPORT MINISTRIES
These areas illustrate our priorities, our program, and our growth as God leads us toward our kingdom potential.
WORSHIP
Worship is our connection to God.
For the Fairgreen faith community this is our most important time together.
We are in the presence of the Holy.
We come together with song and prayer.
We hear the Word read, taught, and applied to our everyday living. Through practical Bible teaching and uplifting worship we seek to minister to the needs of a twenty-first century culture with a message of hope and holiness.
Do you have gifts of music, drama, computer and audio-visual skills? Here is where these gifts can be activated and used to serve others.

INTENTIONAL FAITH DEVELOPMENT
We make and build up disciples of Jesus Christ.
Disciple means student. Jesus called men and women into His community to learn of Him and learn from Him.
The Christian faith is taught by the open Word in Bible study and through open discussion and discovery.
Through practical Bible teaching and relational groups, we seek to minister to the needs of a twenty-first century culture with special programs that address life needs as they intentionally develop their faith-walk with Jesus.
Program areas currently are:
Do you have an interest in learning about the Bible on a more in depth way? Do you have a background in education? Do you have gifts of teaching and presentation? Perhaps you work with children or youth, and you have experience and a sense of call to reach the rising generation. We welcome that. Here is where these kinds of gifts can be activated and used to serve others.

MISSION AND OUTREACH
Mission, outreach, and service in the name of Jesus is responsive to people - their needs, their souls, their hurts, their hopes.
Mission and outreach involves people in a great variety of ways as discipleship is put into action: "Love your neighbor as you love yourself."
The key to effective mission and outreach is not through recruitment, but through the activation of people's passion to serve and to make a difference for the kingdom.
Program areas currently are:
Do you have a passion for helping people? Are you more of a "hands-on" disciple? Do you desire to make a difference? Here is where these kinds of gifts and heart can be activated and used to serve others.
