FHC's Manifold Mission
  • Our mission is that of the Great Commission of Mark 16:15 -"Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature."
  • To preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all generations, bringing a world-wide harvest of souls into the family of God.
  • To place the jewel of a soul in the crown of our Savior, and bring the Lamb that was slain the reward of His suffering.
  • Our mission is to communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ to everyone we are given opportunity to influence, helping them to realize their greatest potential in Christ; teaching them to be victorious and prosperous in spirit, soul, and body through a continually maturing faith in Christ and by the power of the Holy Spirit at work within them.



FHC Manifold Vision
  • To stand at the intersection of life and eternity and bridge the gap between God and man,exposing the darkness of man's sinful path and separation from God, and pointing the way to the remedy:  the redemptive work of Calvary's Cross.
  • To be a Bridge of Hope that provides an escape for lost and hurting humanity to find a holy, healing, loving and forgiving God.
  • To be the hands and feet of the Body of Christ by serving the needs of our generation and carrying the message of salvation, hope, healing and deliverance through Jesus Christ.
  • To provide places of worship where every individual may dedicate themselves to the study of the Word of God and be infused with the anointing and power of the Holy Spirit.
  • To train in the principles of the Bible and the Christian faith, while reflecting the tenets of Pentecostal forms of worship.
  • To teach, from the Word of God, how to worship and do the work of the ministry.
  • Prepare and encourage members to fulfill the Great Commission by going into all the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
  • Establish an atmosphere in which worshippers may know God intimately, to recognize His voice and calling in their lives, and to learn to move in obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
  • To be a point of harvest, a gathering place, for families and individuals of all walks of life, through which they may find life in Jesus Christ and discover their purpose and place in the greater family of God.



FHC Statement of Faith
  • We believe the Bible to be given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, infallible, and Gods revealed word to man (Hebrews 4:12; 1 Peter 1:23-25; 2 Peter 1:20, 21; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13).
  • We believe that Scripture teaches that there is only one true and living God who has chosen to reveal Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10,11; Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:22).
  • We believe that man is a sinful being in need of redemption (Genesis 1:26-31, 3:1-7; Psalm 51:5; Ecclesiastes 7:29; John 6:44; Romans 5:12-21; 1 Corinthians 2:14).
  • We believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, that He is the Son of God and the son of man, that He came to save man from condemnation of sin by offering His blood as an atonement and making it available to all who exercise faith in Him (Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:31, 35; John 3:16-17; 1 Corinthians 15:3; 2 Corinthians 5:21).
  • We believe that for salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential (Luke 7:50, 24:47; Romans 10:13-15; 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2 Corinthians 2:15; Ephesians 2:8, 9; 2 Timothy 1:9; Titus 2:11, 3:5-7).
  • We believe the Scriptures ascribe to the Holy Spirit the acts and attributes of an intelligent being, and that the works of God such as creation, inspiration, giving of life, and sanctification are also ascribed to the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:2; Job 33:4; Mark 3:29; John 16:8, 13; Acts 7:51, 10:19, 13:2, 13:4, 16:6; 1 Corinthians 2:11, 6:11, 12; Ephesians 4:30; 1 Peter 3:18; 2 Peter 1:21).
  • We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life (Romans 8:5; Philippians 2:12, 13; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; 1 John 2:29).
  • We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit is given to believers who ask for it (Joel 2:28; Acts 2:4).
  • We believe that all mankind is subject to the death of the body as a result of original sin. The soul and spirit do not die, but immediately after death enter into a conscious state of happiness or misery according to the character here possessed by rejection or acceptance of the Savior (Ecclesiastes 12:7; Romans 5:12; Philippians 1:23).
  • We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved to everlasting life and the lost without Christ to everlasting damnation (Matthew 24:31-46; Acts 24:15; Revelation 22:11).
  • We believe in the personal, imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).
  • We believe the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer (Isaiah 53:4, 5; James 5:14, 15; 1 Peter 2:24).
