This past Christmas season, we invited the people of Fellowship to go above and beyond in generosity through The Gift, and our congregations responded with incredibly. Just over $690,000 was given and entrusted to the Elders to prayerfully steward on your behalf.

More than $1 million in requests were submitted, representing a wide range of ministry needs locally, regionally, and globally. After careful review and discernment, the Elders distributed these gifts to support gospel-centered work that extends Fellowship’s ministry beyond what our annual budget typically supports.

A significant portion of The Gift supported ministry partners serving around the world—advancing Bible translation, equipping pastors and leaders, strengthening churches in hard-to-reach places, providing clean water, and meeting tangible needs that open doors for discipleship and long-term impact.

Locally and regionally, The Gift helped address critical needs such as care for vulnerable children and families, recovery and restoration ministries, prison and reentry support, food insecurity, and compassionate care for those facing trauma, addiction, or illness.

In addition, $160,000 was designated toward Fellowship initiatives, supporting key projects and improvements that serve our congregations and expand ministry capacity across Northwest Arkansas.

Your generosity through The Gift is making a meaningful difference—supporting faithful ministry, meeting real needs, and advancing the gospel in ways that extend far beyond what we could do alone. Thank you for your prayerful giving and for being part of what God is doing through Fellowship.
