Mission + Mercy + Justice

We equip and mobilize the church family to practice the Way of Jesus within our local, regional and global communities. (Matthew 28:19-20)
We value meaningful relationships, humble partnerships, collective participation, and generous justice.
We value the influence and leadership of the local church to care for its community.
 
We engage the Fellowship West family in gospel-fueled mission by engaging in partner relationships and providing pathways to mission. Partnerships are intentional, on-going and disciple-making relationships we have formed. Pathways are para-church organizations that are aligned with our mission and values.
