<br><br>Here We Grow. We are so excited to report that Ethan Willis was baptized into Christ this past Saturday! Ethan grew up right here at Fairfield. He is the son of Vance and Jana Willis. His grandmother is Sheila Brady and his great grandmother is Floy Cochran. Ethan is a college student, studying Computer Engineering at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. He is an outstanding young man and we couldn’t be happier for him and his family. Let’s allow Ethan’s faith and courage to inspire us all. If you need to make a move in faith, make it today!<br><br>Relief For Grief. GriefShare is coming to Fairfield. We will be saying much more about it in upcoming days, but GriefShare is a grief support group. It is actually a network of thousands of grief recovery support groups meeting around the world. GriefShare is a program with direction and purpose. It teaches people how to walk the journey of grief and be supported on the way. It is a place where grieving people find healing and hope. The meetings include video seminars, group discussion, and personal workbooks. Teresa Purcell and I are planning to lead the first group, beginning in March. The group will include up to eight people. It will meet weekly for 13 weeks. The plan is to offer GriefShare 3 times each year. Stay tuned for much more information. In the meantime, please be praying that many people in our congregation and community will find the comfort of Christ through this program. <br>
