Chicken Pie Supper Saturday in Fairfax
The first seating of the Chicken Pie supper was
packed full of hungry people at 5:00pm at the
Elementary School Gymnasium at B.F.A. Fairfax.
Delicious Chicken pies complete with biscuits,
pickles, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes,
squash, and home made apple or pumpkin pie.
The meals were huge and fantastic.
Back in 1939 the Baptist Church of Fairfax and
the Methodist Church of Fairfax decided to merge
(the merger letter, signed by S William Webb can
be read at our website www.gbgm-umc.org/fairfaxvt)
to form one faith community,
the United Church of Fairfax.
Part of the merger agreement required that
ministerial leadership rotate between each
denomination.
Another part of the agreement involves the use of
the Baptist Church Building for worship annually.
Thus, each July, the congregation of the United
Church of Fairfax worships at the stately
Baptist Church Building on Main Street.
The time of worship remains the same: 10:45.
As always, we always welcome new folks to our fellowship.
