Event Report 2022

Ongoing Events

Evangelism is alive and well at Fairview Bible Church. Happy Valentines Day!

For 2022, the car wash ministry raised between $1,800.00 to $1,300.00 per car wash, supporting Commit 360 (Bremerton), the Sequim High School Basketball team, and Christmas Angels (Sequim). The True Vine Fellowship (TTVF) carwash trailer provides all the materials and equipment needed to conduct a carwash complete with pressure washers, signage, and towels. The youth ministries (along with parents) provide the manpower necessary to conduct each carwash. Every customer and participant receives a free Living Water Gospel of John and ice cold bottle of water. In addition, TTVF provides a free pizza lunch for the workers.

The Promise of Life Café supports outreaches in Sequim: Beautiful Day, Sequim Food Bank, and the Sequim Skate Park. Beautiful Day is a multi-church outreach design to provide services to various charities in Sequim. The Sequim Food Bank provides free food for those living in the Sequim area. The Sequim Skate Park raises funding for skate park improvements. Unfortunately, this year one of our outreaches with the skate park was cancelled due to weather. The Promise of Life Café serves burgers and gives out Living Water Gospels of John, all for free.

The Carlsborg Family Church hosts a special annual Christmas outreach called the Living Nativity. On several evenings in December the birth of the baby Jesus is reenacted. Pastor Jerry Luengen requested The True Vine Fellowship provide evangelism training; Prior to the event, Frank Tyler taught a ten session series called The Four Keys to Sharing Good News. Elder Will Finch reenacted the Inn Keeper; Frank played the Angel Gabriel. The Carlsborg Family Church is a very faithful fellowship dedicated to reaching out to the Olympic Peninsula with the gospel!
