Help our global partners as they serve their communities and share the hope of the gospel.
Take part in what God is doing around the globe by sharing our resources with a hurting world in need.
Every December, it is our privilege at Fellowship Bible Church to take a few weeks and place special emphasis on what God is doing around the world, both locally and globally. We call this season Global Christmas. It is a reminder for us to look beyond ourselves and embrace the work our Global and Local partners are doing as they embrace hurting people who need the good news of Jesus Christ. There are many needs that we could come alongside but our commitment to building relationships causes us to be intentional with a few. We have strategically selected local and global partnerships to help invest in and further their mission. Our partnerships are intentionally selected so our members have the opportunity to serve regularly and build relationships that shape us. Without intentionally building relationships with others on our street, community, and around the world we will remain limited in our understanding, experience, and views of who God is and the needs of the world. This commitment is rooted in our values of Better Together and Not About Ourselves.
Your giving makes a difference! These partners are doing incredible things, and we get the chance to come alongside and join them in kingdom work. Because of the generosity of your prayers, finances and sending global teams, we have helped to train leaders, educate and feed children, grow churches and so much more. Over the past 20 years, together, through our local and global partnerships, we have walked out our value of Not About Ourselves and have contributed close to 14 million dollars and extended the reach of the gospel!

The constant thread of their church is they want to be disciples who make disciples.

At Fellowship Bible Church, we believe strategic partnerships are the lifeblood of an effective and sustainable global ministry. Our primary aim is to lock arms with like-minded individuals that are indigenous to their own cultures. Through these types of relationships, we lessen the time-consuming learning curve associated with language acquisition and more quickly bridge cultural and ethnic gaps.
Under the sovereign hand of God, what Fellowship has in abundance is exactly what our partners lack—financial and equipping resources, and exposure to different kinds of strategies that can make a big difference in moving Kingdom initiatives forward.

Darko was raised in a Christian home and was saved at a young age. In high school, the Lord called Darko to full-time ministry, so Darko went on to attend International Evangelical Theological Seminary in Osijek, Croatia. Darko married his wife, Gorana, and the Lord blessed them with four children: two girls and two boys. In addition, Darko and Gorana are fostering four children.
After getting married, the Lord opened an opportunity for them to join the church planting team in Slavonski Brod. With a population of 70,000, Brod was at that time the largest Croatian town without any evangelical church. Now after over a decade they see a small but growing body of believers who love the Lord and are being transformed into Christ-likeness.At Fellowship Bible Church, we believe strategic partnerships are the lifeblood of an effective and sustainable global ministry.

Dr. Imad Shehadeh, a Jordan-born Palestinian Christian, founded the Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary (JETS) in 1991. JETS is one of the earliest-accredited evangelical training institutions in the Middle East. Since 1991, JETS has trained hundreds of leaders from all over the Middle East, the Arab Peninsula, and North Africa, and has Bachelor, Master, and Doctorate graduate programs. While the Middle East is very unstable in today’s political climate, Jordan is actually relatively stable, and JETS has been shown favor by the government to exist and train leaders. JETS play a very strategic role in God’s plan to build His Church.

Dr. Peter Mitzkevich began his spiritual pilgrimage at age 14 when he put his faith in Christ, fully aware of the dangers of making such a decision under Soviet rule. Years later, he became a medical doctor, but his professional life changed when he assisted the Gideon International Bible distribution ministry. People who received the Bible would ask Peter to help them understand Scripture, but he was not equipped to do so. This motivated Peter to receive his Master of Theology degree. Peter says his dream for Russia is “that each town will have its own evangelical church, that each pastor will be theologically educated, that each church will have its own place of worship, and that each citizen of Russia will receive the Good News.” Peter is the president of the Moscow Theological Seminary and president of the Russia Baptist Union.
