It was a tremendous day of rejoicing in Christ for all He has done in the past 12 months in the life of Fellowship Church. We moved the celebration outdoors to accommodate everyone with physical distancing and to allow maximum participation safely. In many ways it was a family reunion for Fellowshipper’s after several months of being a part due to the Corona Virus. This past Sunday our church celebrated 9 years living for the good of the community, the glory of Christ, and the salvation of all.
