This year, in addition\u00a0to celebrating natural, sustainable growth in individual churches, we are welcoming\u00a0several new congregations into the fellowship, giving us the opportunity to impact\u00a0additional communities for Christ.<\/p>\n<p>Some congregations are changing their status from \u201cFEC church plant\u201d to \u201cFEC\u00a0congregation;\u201d others are previously established churches that are making the\u00a0decision to identify with us in the cause of reaching the world for Christ; still others\u00a0are site campuses of churches within our fellowship. These newly participating\u00a0churches and church campuses include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Christ the King Church in Cincinnati, Ohio<\/li>\n<li>Crossroads Evangelical Church, Napoleon Campus, in Napoleon, Ohio<\/li>\n<li>Grace Community Fellowship Church in Hillsboro, Kansas<\/li>\n<li>Grace Crossing Church in Moundridge, Kansas<\/li>\n<li>Mission Church in Fort Wayne, Indiana<\/li>\n<li>Northwoods Community Church, Chillicothe Campus, in Chillicothe, Illinois<\/li>\n<li>Northwoods Community Church, Galesburg Campus, in Galesburg, Illinois<\/li>\n<li>The Real Tree Church in Farmington, Minnesota<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition, FEC continues to support nine church plants across the United States\u2014everywhere from Denver, Colorado, to Portland, Maine, with several church plants\u00a0dotting the landscape of America\u2019s heartland in Kansas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t forget the international initiatives in Spain and West Africa, where we\u00a0continue to see God open doors for ministry. (You can learn more about these\u00a0initiatives at <a href=\"\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fecministries.org<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>When you think about it, this kind of growth is exactly what we should all be\u00a0expecting, given our mission of \u201cestablishing reproducing churches worldwide.\u201d And\u00a0while we certainly celebrate the greater numbers of churches identifying with us,\u00a0we ultimately care more about the spread of the Gospel and the expansion of God\u2019s\u00a0kingdom. By welcoming these new churches into our larger body, we are able to do\u00a0more collectively to reach a hurting and dying world with God\u2019s love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FEC Is an Ever-Growing Group of Believers An update about newly participating churches and church campuses &nbsp; If you regularly attend a church affiliated with the Fellowship of Evangelical\u00a0Churches, you\u2019re part of an ever-growing group of believers.
