Our Vision
We believe everyone needs the hope Jesus offers, so our passion is to help people find that hope and grow in a relationship with Him. We emphasize grace and acceptance, yet we’re equally passionate about truth, as we help people understand who Jesus is and how to take the next right step in their journey of faith.

Grief Seminar
Saturday 10:00am - 12:00pm
Unfortunately, grief and loss are part of life. Whether you’ve lost a family member or a friend, processing grief is as personal and unique as the person you lost. There is no quick fix and no roadmap that fits everyone or every situation. But you can find help and hope during the most difficult of times.
Fairhaven Church is offering a Grief Seminar presented by Stephanie Hittle, MS, LPCC. The seminar will educate you about the difference between healthy and unhealthy grief and give you strategies to cope during this difficult time.
