Pam Watson has been around Fellowship Church longer than almost everyone here except for one other member.  She has a heart for God that has stretched back some 25 years ago when she became a follower of Christ in Eastern Pennsylvania.  Besides a brief stint living back in PA in 2002, Pam has been proud to call Massachusetts her home forover 10 years now, and Fellowship Church her home church

Pam says, “The one thing that keeps me coming back to FC are the people.  When one member hurts, the rest of us hurt too.  When a need is presented, those that can lend a hand, money, or their heart do so without any questions being asked.  The only motive is to show people that we at FC are real and practice what is preached.  People that reach out to others at FC are never in competition with each other….they serve because HE served and they team together to make what needs to happen, happen.”

Pam is no stranger to serving either.  She has almost done every ministry possible during her time at the FC, including cleaning, children’s ministry, administrative duties, and Sunday guest services.  Currently she leads a small group every other Tuesday for older members of Fellowship and is a part of a Thursday small each week.

One of the funniest things Pam has seen at Fellowship Church was the video on the topic of love produced by the FC production team.  Here it is:

As far as the person who has influenced her the most:  (This was not coerced, I swear!)  “Ok now for the person that I have watched grow since I have been a member at FC.  That person would be our Sr Pastor, Marty Holman.  Ten years ago he came to this church as a young man who simply had a desire to serve the Lord.   He was our worship leader and was the person in charge of doing all that was needed to be done in the church building.  Ten years later he has become our Sr. Pastor, a husband and a man that still has a desire to serve the Lord but does so now seeking God’s face continually and wanting nothing more than to please his God by encouraging his sheep to grow in their relationship with each other and their Savior.  He has always loved people….but has had to balance his desire to fellowship with preparing messages and searching the scripture to teach all of us what is TRUE in God’s word versus what tradition teaches.”

Actually, Pam has been a huge influence in my life, and people like Pam, are the reason why Fellowship Church continues to follow God’s vision even years later!

Let’s give it up for Pam!
