Welcome!

We are happy to have you worship with us today. Here in our Fairmont family it is our goal to bring you closer to Jesus in a loving environment. If you are looking to make this your church home, we invite you to speak to one of our Elders as you exit the doors of the sanctuary. It is our hope that Fairmont can be a place where we all proclaim Jesus, and prepare people for His soon return. We Study 9:30 am – 10:30 am

Fairmont Family News

The new flower calendar for 2018 is now posted in the hallway. You are invited to sign up to sponsor flowers for the new year. The cost is $80.

Mid-week Prayer Meeting will be on Wednesday at 7:00 PM. We are studying The Acts of the Apostles. This week’s chapter is “The Church Triumphant”, pages 593-602.

The 8th grade bridge-building contest will be held this Saturday night in the Fellowship Hall at 6:30. Snacks and drinks will be available for purchase. You are invited to come watch and support our eighth grade students.

The ABC Bookmobile is coming to Lodi Wednesday, March 14 to bring pre-paid orders only. You may call the Sacramento ABC at 916-486-7730 to place an order no later than Monday. The truck will be at English Oaks at 11:15 AM, and the Academy at 12:15 PM.

There will be an all-church fellowship potluck lunch next week after the worship service, before the afternoon seminar. Bring your favorite vegetarian dish, and join us for food and fellowship.

Pistachios are now available in the church office at $7 per 1 lb. bag. $1 goes to the church library.

If you brought food in a crock pot to the fellowship lunch on February 24, please check to see if you have the correct lid. Debra Griffin has discovered that the lid she took home is too small for her pot, so someone now has one that is too large. If your meals just haven’t been the same lately, perhaps this is why. Contact Debra to get your lid back.

Don’t miss Lodi Academy’s Renaissance Faire tomorrow at the Academy grounds. Hours are from 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM. Admission is free. There will be food sales, games, prizes, and much more.

Attention all Elders: there is a meeting today in the Conference Room immediately after the worship service.

Scan this QR Code with your Smartphone to access the Adventistgiving.org website where you can return tithe, give an offering, or make a donation electronically.

Daylight Saving Time begins tomorrow morning at 2:00 AM. Don’t forget to set your clocks forward by one hour tonight before going to bed.

Attention!! 100 full-day, and 50 half-day volunteers needed for the Amen Dental, Vision, Medical clinic April 29 at the Academy Gym. All skills are needed. Come join us for a day of giving and service to others. If you are unable to attend we need your prayers, financial support, and donation of water bottles and granola bars. All volunteers must register on-line at amenfreeclinic.org. If you have questions, or need assistance registering, or have no computer call Claire Lear. Thank you.
