At Fellowship, we believe the church is more than a place—it’s the body of believers, united in Christ. Stay informed about worship, events, and opportunities to grow and serve together. Download this week’s bulletin below and join in the life of our church family!

We are prayerfully moving toward a biblical model of church leadership known as elder-led congregationalism. In this model, the church is shepherded by a team of qualified elders who lead, teach, and care for the body, while the congregation faithfully participates in affirming decisions and gospel ministry.
At Fellowship, we are taking intentional steps to move toward this pattern found in the New Testament.

November Worship Playlist
|
At Fellowship, we believe worship doesn’t stop on Sunday—it’s a way of life. That’s why we create a monthly playlist of the songs we’ll be singing together in worship. This playlist helps prepare your heart for Sunday, encourages personal worship throughout the week, and allows families to engage with the music at home. Let these songs draw you closer to Christ and unite us as we lift our voices together.

Brothers and Sisters,
Sunday was an amazing day! New singer on the band, Terry was added to our association’s pulpit supply list, a new family joined the church, our ladies ministry handed out cards to nursing home residents, and we had a missions team meeting, search team meeting, and finance team meeting — all in one day.

This isn’t leadership.
This is God doing what only He can do through His people.
Soli Deo Gloria.
There are two more big things you need to be aware of:
First, our first set of 10-week Wednesday night adult Bible studies comes to an end this week. Our next 10-week series begins immediately after — God’s Design for Church Leadership. This is crucial for every member to be part of. You, as the congregation, will be discerning and deciding what men should be put forward as elder and deacon candidates. This is a weighty stewardship — and we need your prayerful discernment.
Secondly, this year we will have a family-friendly Christmas Eve Service at 4pm. Why 4pm? Because Christmas Eve is one of the most spiritually open days of the entire year — equal in evangelistic opportunity to Easter — yet most churches only put their focus on Easter. We want to redeem this night with a service centered on Christ and accessible to families. This time also gives families margin to attend worship and still make it to Christmas Eve dinner.
Invite friends, family, and neighbors. Make Christmas Eve at Fellowship a part of their family tradition. We will sing, read Luke 2 with the kids up front, share candlelight, and enjoy cookies and cocoa together afterwards.

Wednesday Nights November 19 - February 11th

Jesus cares about how His church is led. Leadership is not a modern invention or a cultural preference — it is a biblical mandate shaped by the authority of Scripture and designed for the good of God’s people.
Over 10 weeks, we will walk through what the Bible teaches about elders, deacons, and the congregation — and how each, in their God-given role, serves the mission of Christ together. We will examine the essential doctrines of church leadership, the beauty of shared shepherding, the stewardship of the congregation, and why plurality, character, and Scripture-anchored order matters today just as much as it did in the first century.
This series is not just information about leadership.
It is preparation, formation, and clarity for the future health of Fellowship — for God’s glory and the good of His people.
Week 1: The Authority & the Sufficiency of Scripture
Week 2: A People Set Apart: The Congregation’s Stewardship
