The Mentoring Partnership
Why do ordinary Christ followers sacrifice their precious time, emotional capital, and resources to serve as mentors? They want to change the world – changed lives, change worlds. A mentor is a caring adult willing to devote time to young people to encourage healthy, positive growth socially, emotionally, educationally, physically and spiritually.
Mentoring at its core, guarantees a young person that there is someone who cares about them and assures them that they are not alone in dealing with the day-to-day challenges, and makes them feel like they matter. A mentor from Fellowship Bible Church is an Ambassador of Christ in an increasingly difficult world.
Mentors spend an hour a week with their mentee at the mentee’s school through the school year. The hope is that the mentee can continue the relationship year after year, giving the relationship time to grow and flourish.

Look for Food Share boxes in February!
FoodShare
FoodShare started in 2013 with the idea that food insecurity is just as real in February as in November and December. Most food drives happen around Thanksgiving and Christmas, but hunger is year-round. Since then, Fellowship Bible Church has hand-delivered food boxes to over 1600 households – that's approximately 47 tons of food! Year after year, hundreds of people from FBC have made FoodShare a successful outreach to our community.
As impressive as the numbers are, the impact of lives changed is far more notable and why FoodShare continues to grow each year. Attached to every food box is a copy of the Gospel of John in English and Spanish. Beyond filling hungry stomachs, we hope that the good news touches the hearts of those who read it. "My word which goes out of My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it." Isa 55:11

Light Up the Night
According to a national poll, between 80 to 90 percent of children go trick-or-treating each year. This means that Halloween is an opportune time to reach thousands of kids in our community with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ. You can make a difference just by leaving your light on.
