Sermon from July 7
Sermon from July 14
In light of the horrifying event in Butler, PA, on Saturday, July 13, Pastor Josh felt the need to lead our church in a special prayer service for our country. He read scripture and briefly spoke about our need to pray for our country and our leaders and to remind us that God is still on His throne and is still our refuge in times of trouble. This message is now available on our Sermons 2024 page.
(We are behind on the sermons, in part due to the web administrator’s recent vacation, but expect to be caught up soon. The sermon from July 7 will be added at a later date. We opted to post this prayer service first, due to the timeliness of what happened last Saturday.)
Change for Life – Baby Bottle Campaign for Hope Center
This past Sunday we had Pam Crank from the Hope Center visiting with us to kick off a Baby Bottle Drive to raise money for the Hope Center. Plastic baby bottles were distributed after the service. We are now out of the bottles, but if you did not receive one you can still use a jar or bottle or whatever you may have at home. You are encouraged to fill the bottle with coins, cash, or a check and then bring the filled bottle back to the church. (Please write the checks payable to our church and make a notation that it’s for the Hope Center.) We have a plastic bin in the church foyer for collecting the bottles. Please return them anytime on or before Sunday, July 28.
If you prefer to donate online, you can go here and make a donation directly to the Hope Center. Click the “Give” button and then type “Fellowship” in the search bar to select our church so it will count toward our goal.
Your donation to the Hope Center will save and change lives! Thank you!
Union Association Northern Quarterly Meeting – July 27
We will be hosting the Northern Quarterly Meeting of the Union Association of Free Will Baptists on Saturday, July 27, at 10 a.m. Our choir will be singing. We will also be providing a catered lunch. Everyone is invited to the service.
The choir will be practicing after our regular Wednesday night service on July 24.

Our ladies group will be having a yard sale on August 2-3. They are now accepting donations for the sale. Please bring anything you would like to donate to the Activities Building and put it in the back of the annex section, in the area next to the garage. Please put a price on everything except clothing, as this will save our ladies a lot of work.

Website Maintenance Complete
We have finished correcting the formatting errors that resulted from the change to the new web platform. If you have any difficulties with the website or see anything that looks strange, please let us know by sending a message to the web administrator using the form on the “Contact Us” page.
We do seem to have an issue with the embedded Google map not showing on the “Maps and Directions” page. However, we have added a note on the page to scroll down and click the link at the bottom; this link takes you to the actual Google Maps page showing where we are located.
Older Sermons from 2017-2019
The sermon pages for 2017-2019 have been removed. We needed to delete some files to make more space for new sermons. Selected sermons from these pages have been moved to the “Selected Older Sermons” page. We have checked everything and believe the links and the files are working fine. However, if you have any problems with any of these sermons, or any other links or files on our sites, please go to the Contact Us page and send a message to the web administrator so she can look into the issue. Thank you.
Welcome New Pastor Rev. Josh McKinney!
Fellowship Church would like to extend a warm welcome to our new pastor, Rev. Josh McKinney. Pastor Josh grew up in our church and eventually felt the call to ministry. He left us to become pastor at another church, where he served faithfully for the past nine years. Now he is coming home to lead us here at Fellowship! We are excited to have him back and are looking forward to seeing how the Lord will use Josh as he leads us!
