FAQ

What do you offer for my kids?
We have three different types of ministries for your kids depending on their age.  We have Discoveryland (Birth-Pre-K) and Adventureland (K-5th grade) at both 9:15 and 11am, and Student Impact (6th-12th grade) only at 9:15am.  All of the teaching, music and activities are age appropriate, engaging and fun.

What kind of security measures are in place in for the kids?

What are your adult services like?
Our Sunday morning adult worship service is designed to engage you at every level.  We have upbeat music, thought-provoking multimedia and God’s Word is taught in a way that you can understand and apply to your everyday life. 

How should I dress?
Come just as you are.  Some will dress in Khaki’s and dress shirt, or jeans, shorts and a t-shirt. No need for a suit and tie.  We care about you, not how you are dressed. 

Why don’t you have a building?  Do you plan to always meet in a school?
We have recently (Spring 2008) purchased 22 acres of land in Northern Hays County on FM967 and are looking to put up a temporary facility that we can meet in by Jan. 2010.

What types of community outreach do you do?
Our passion is to build relational bridges into the family, community and world and the best way we do that is through our personal influence.  Our commitment is to equip you to live an irresistible and influential life right where you are.  We are also involved with Meals on Wheels, Capital Area Food Bank and provide events occasionally such as the Community Candy Carnival.  All that said, if you’d like a list of what we’re involved with please click here.

What kind of church is this?  Are you affiliated with any denomination?
Fellowship is a non-denominational Bible believing church that is conservative in doctrine but desires to meet our culture on its own turf. 

Do you have mid-week services or Sunday school?
Because one of our core values is Servant Leadership and our belief is that life change and learning happens best in a small group environment; we don’t offer these.  We want our members and regular attenders coming to a worship service and serving on Sunday, and then getting connected in a small group (Home Teams, Men’s and Women’s groups)through out the week. 

Who oversees the finances of the church?
The Operations Team which consists of 2-3 elders and 3-4 lay members in the church.  This team is responsible for the operational accountability of the budget of FC, which also includes personnel.

What is the Leadership Structure of Fellowship Church?
We are Elder governed, staff led.  This means that the Elders provide the spiritual guardrails for the church and have entrusted the pastors and staff to lead the day-to-day operations of the church. We believe this structure empowers ministries, provides accountability, and is God honoring.
