Faith Christian Fellowship International’s Story
In 1979, Bishop William and Hattie Hildreth, together with a group of like-minded ministers, answered God’s call with a shared vision and united faith. Moved by a deep burden for the Church, they founded Faith Christian Fellowship International (FCFI) — a fellowship firmly rooted in the apostolic ministry of the New Testament.
Their heartfelt desire was to create a Spirit-led community that would serve full gospel ministers, churches, and missionary endeavors — strengthening and sustaining a vibrant body of believers who are directed and empowered by the Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ.
Today, the President and Board of Directors continue to carry this same vision forward. We remain committed to fostering unity, biblical accountability, and Spirit-filled ministry among pastors and ministry workers across the nation and around the world.
At FCFI, we believe that when ministers stand together in faith and fellowship, the Church is strengthened, the Gospel advances, and lives are transformed for the glory of God.
