First of all, thank you for visiting our webpage. My name is Mike Eighmy (Eighmy is pronounced "Amy"). Connie and I have been at Fairfax UMC in Fairfax, Missouri for one year now (by the way, the photo is Green Bay, Wisconsin). We have been blessed to come here and become a part of this warm, caring and outward focused congregation. We are a small- to medium-sized church (avg. worship is 94), and we have people in all age groups (avg. School is 63).

Connie and I grew up in Northwest Missouri, specifically in Worth County. We graduated from Grant City High School, the same year (we were and are high school sweethearts). We attended Northwest Missouri State University. Connie taught and I bought a business. After almost twenty years in business, I knew I had to surrender to full-time ministry. My seminary training was at Saint Paul School of Theology, and together we have served four churches before coming to Fairfax (back home). My theology is Bible based with a Wesleyan perspective; that the local church is the hope of the world. Our worship, fellowship, discipleship, mission, and ministry all reflect our efforts to please God, by loving Him and our neighbor with heart, mind, body, and soul.
