About Island Fellowship Church-St. Thomas, Virgin Islands:

Island Fellowship Church grew out of mostly a home church that started in 2014 mainly of temporary residents but has developed into a very diverse core group of lifelong locals, long-term transplants, snowbirds, and vacationers passing through each week. We reflect the ethnic diversity of our community well. Sunday morning worship begins at 10:00am and averages 40-50 people each week. Children's Church consists of 10 children from preschool to 5th grade and is taught by a rotating group of four women. Our current church location can seat 75 people with the ability to expand and has two classrooms for the Children's Ministry.

Currently, three members of our Board rotate preaching for the Sunday service. Our services last 1 ¼ - 1 ½ hours. The Church weekly giving was approximately $6,500 a month for 2022. For 2023, our annual budget is set at $78,000.
