1 Wednesday, November 1, 2017 Volume 70 Number 40 It is Christmas, 1870, and Dr. Timothy Cratchit is about to set sail for a new life in Boston when he learns he has inherited a dilapidated clinic in Whitechapel from old Mr. Scrooge. Before he can leave for America, he must first do his duty as an Englishman and find a doctor to run the clinic. When none can be found, Tim has little choice but to take the job himself temporarily, of course. Or is it? Once he meets the pretty but headstrong young nurse who works there, along with the orphans in her care, Tim has to decide between the two very different futures that await him.

2 Fairmount is gearing up once again to host our bi-annual Christmas musical, which is a huge opportunity for outreach into our community. We anticipate 5,000+ people will walk through Fairmount s doors to watch this production. We need your help! Beginning this Sunday, November 5, we will be recruiting volunteers to serve during the 8 shows spread out over the first 2 weekends in December. Sign-ups will take place in the Worship Center Lobby. God Bless Us, Every One will have performances over the weekends of December 1-3 and December 8-10 (see Page 1 for schedule). For each show, we need a total of 24 volunteers in these areas: Greeters: We will have greeters at both of our main entrances into the building to welcome our guests and direct them to the Worship Center. Ushers: We will have ushers inside the Worship Center to assist people in finding a seat and to help any of our guests who may have a handicap. Parking Attendants: We will have parking attendants to ensure that our guests have a safe entry onto our property. They will direct vehicles to parking lots in both the front and rear of the building. Welcome Center: After each show, we will have attendants at our Welcome Center who will be available to distribute information to our guests about Fairmount. Please contact Chris Santasiere (csantasiere@fairmountchristian.org) or Sherri Fadool (sfadool@fairmountchristian.org) with any questions about volunteering. The cast & crew have been hard at work preparing for this year s production. Here s a little peek into last Sunday s rehearsal. page 2 BIBLE CENTERED COMMITTED TO GROWTH COMMUNITY FOCUSED & GLOBALLY MINDED DEDICATED TO EXCELLENCE
