At Faith Community Fellowship, we believe in
community... fellowship is good, community is better, and service that
flows from community is the ultimate! We believe that the church
should be a force of irresistible influence in our community.
Jesus imagined a connecting church, a bridge
of influence. The church needs to embrace its essential role as
bridge builder.
This is where irresistible influence comes into play: a bridge over the
troubled waters between an isolated church and a cynical culture. A
bridge where credibility could be reestablished by God’s people in the
minds of an increasingly skeptical and hostile world. A bridge where
people would be drawn to cross over, rather than repelled. A bridge of
proof, rather than hollow words.
Ultimately, irresistible influence is about enlarging the concept of
ministry. Anything done in the name of Christ is ministry.
Anything.
We believe God wants us to be:
A church passionately committed to Jesus
Christ and to his Great Commission
A church of biblically-consistent
lifestyles and priorities
A church of radical love and selfless good
deeds that astounds the world around us!
What is a Common Cause
Team?
Common Cause is a small group structure that intentionally
processes people toward a personal ministry of influence.

Habitat for Humanity Team
FCF was the sponsor for The Plaisted House in Ellsworth.

the spring, and the family moved in to their new house in June 2010.
