Jonesborough,
Tenn.
Fairview United Methodist Church in
Jonesborough, Tenn., celebrates its
100th
anniversary in 2008. It's not a church to
rest on past
successes, however. While we are proud of our past, we also rejoice in
the future, knowing that the future is where we see Christ in
full. Our
vision
is clear: We look forward
to a world conformed to Christ, a world where "every knee should bend
... and
every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord."
In
the meantime, Fairview's mission
also is clear. We make disciples of Jesus Christ. We do this in
anticipation of his
glorious return, and in the knowledge that the Christian life is the
good life now. We proclaim the truth
that Jesus is Lord
and Savior. We proclaim this truth in worship, in our love for each
other, and
in our loving interaction with those we meet. We particularly seek out those in
our community who need a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
In
addition to our Sunday worship and times of discipleship in Sunday
school and
small groups, we strongly emphasize the need to reach the children
and youth
of our community with the message of Jesus Christ. We
do this primarily through a large Wednesday night outreach program,
where
children from nursery age through high school are fed, loved and taught
the
good news as found in Scripture.
We
also recognize how our community around us is changing. In just the
last few
years, we have moved from being a rural farm community church to one
serving a
burgeoning bedroom community. We intend to change with the times,
serving our
community as needed until Christ's return.
