Fairmont Baptist Church

Fairmont Baptist Church invites the community to a free Christian concert at 10:45 AM, Sunday Sept. 12 with Christian recording artist Blake Bolerjack.  The concert will be held at Fairmont Baptist Church. Blake Bolerjack provides a dynamic blend of Southern Gospel favorites and Christian Contemporary music. Bolerjack feels his inspiration for his music comes from the number of people he’s seen who are hurting and feel like they are alone. Bolerjack says, “I’ve met so many people who feel like they have to fix themselves before they can come to God. God wants you as you are, let Him fix you.” Bolerjack says he can relate to these struggles because of his own dramatic past—a past he says was plagued with believing lies that he was worthless and inadequate.  About his message’s importance he explains, “My message and music really focus on how there is someone who cares about you and what you’re going through…and his name is Jesus.”

 Blake Bolerjack is a full time recording artist who travels all across the nation sharing concerts and special music. Bolerjack gained nationwide recognition with the presence of his single, “Somebody Cares” on national radio charts. He has appeared with notable groups such as The Booth Brothers, The Greenes, and has sung several times for TBN programming. Of Blake’s gift it has been said, “Blake is an amazing tenor with an incredible gift for projecting spiritual feeling with his voice.” More information and music clips can be found at Blake’s website: www.blakebolerjack.com

The concert will be at Fairmont Baptist Church Sunday, September 12th during their morning service at 10:45 AM. The church is located at 2733 N. 44^th Street, Fairmont City, IL.  The general public is invited to attend. The concert is free admission and a love offering will be received. Blake’s CDs will also be available for purchase at the concert.

Every year the folks at church donate school supplies and we have a special day where the people in the community can come and get these supplies for their kids free of charge.  It’s a great ministry that has been a part of our outreach for at least 10 years.

Last Saturday, August 7th,  we held our 2010 event and had about 50 students and their families come and pick up supplies for this school year.  We enjoy getting to talk with them about the upcoming school year and developing relationships with these families.  We already had one person attend church Sunday the 8th because of the event.

We appreciate your prayers and support as we seek to share the Gospel using a variety of methods to share the message.  Our next big event is the Blake Bolerjack concert on September 12th at 10:45 a.m.  We’ll be posting more about that in the next few weeks.  For now, mark down that date and make plans to attend!

Everyone enjoyed the concert this morning.  The storms didn’t keep anyone away and the Lord kept the weather from being a problem.

Brent truly is a talented singer and songwriter and his skills as a ventriloquist are tremendous.  He gives Sam such an endearing personality that you just can’t help but love him.

If you are looking to have Brent Vernon and Sam come to your church or event you won’t be disappointed.
