Thirty years of blessings, laughter, and faith – that’s what we’re celebrating as we come together on this momentous occasion of Fellowship of the Parks’ 30th-year anniversary. Over the past three decades, we’ve grown, changed, and evolved, but one thing has remained constant: our church is a family for everyone.
Our Secret Sauce: People and Connection
The heart of our church, the secret sauce that makes us so special, is our people and the connections we build. We believe everyone who walks through our doors should feel like they’ve found a second home, a loving family. It’s about making connections that go beyond the superficial and into the spiritual.
Pastor Doug Walker: A Humble Leader with a Passion for the Gospel
At the helm of this incredible journey is our beloved Pastor Doug Walker. If there’s one word to describe him, it’s “humble.” Pastor Doug leads with his heart, driven by an unwavering passion for the Gospel of Jesus. He’s a guiding light, showing us the way with his faith, kindness, and love. Under his leadership, we’ve learned the true meaning of humility and the importance of living out our faith daily.
Compassion, Grace, and Humility: The Church Staff’s Mantra
But it’s not just Pastor Doug; it’s our entire church staff that makes us a family for everyone. They lead with compassion, grace, and humility, ensuring everyone feels valued, supported, and heard. They work tirelessly behind the scenes to create an environment where everyone can thrive, and they do so with boundless love.
Acknowledging our Media and Worship Teams
On our anniversary Sunday, we witnessed something truly extraordinary. Our media and worship teams, who consistently bring their best every week, went above and beyond. The centerpiece of the celebration was a captivating video montage that traced the church’s history and laid out a vision for the future. Set to the soul-stirring tune of “Do It Again” by Elevation Worship, it was a tear-jerking, awe-inspiring experience.
This extraordinary effort by our media and worship teams reminds us of the dedication and passion that fuels our church. Their creative expression brought our history to life, showing how far we’ve come and where we’re headed next.
From Humble Beginnings to a Bright Future
Fellowship of the Parks began with humble beginnings in a home in Park Glen with just 11 people. But look at us now, standing tall with five campuses and an ever-growing family. And the best part is, we’re not done yet! Our mission to be a family for everyone continues to evolve and grow. As we celebrate our 30th year, we look forward to the many more years of blessings, laughter, and faith that lie ahead.
As we commemorate this milestone, we do so with hearts full of gratitude and a clear vision for the future. With God’s grace, our remarkable people, and a commitment to being a family for everyone, we are excited to see what the next 30 years will bring. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey, and here’s to the road ahead.
