About Faith Fellowship Christian Church:

"To know Christ and make Him known."

The final command Jesus gave his disciples was to make disciples, teaching them to observe all that he had commanded. We realize that heaven does not count professions of faith; heaven counts disciples of Jesus.

When you make it your life mission to know Christ, making Him known will be a natural outflow and fruit of your relationship with Him. You won't have to muster up the energy to share your faith. It will just flow out of you and people will recognize the authenticity of that. At Faith Fellowship, we are committed to developing and discipling all those God has entrusted to us.
