Missions   Our church believes in putting into action today what Acts 1:8 says, "....be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."  We pray God finds us faithful in serving Him and helping to spread His Word on a local, state and national level as well as to the ends of the earth! FHCC has reached out locally by organizing Small Bible Studies in homes across the county, having summer VBS, AWANA and Sunday School for the children, ACEs for the teens, MAMAs for mothers, and having services at the Chase County Health and Rehabilitation Center.  Our pastor also holds three Bible Studies at the Chase County Detention Center weekly.  We are also a member of the Chase County Ministerial Alliance and try to help other local projects as much as we can. FHCC contributes prayerfully and financially to the following Ministries: Family Life Services Pregnancy Center - Emporia, Kansas - This ministry seeks to help young women who need pregnancy, financial, spiritual, and medical counciling.  The Pregnancy Crisis Center bases its counseling on the moral and scriptural aspects of choosing life in sometimes difficult situations.  Phone them at (620) 342-2244. University of Kansas Campus Crusade for Christ - Lawrence, Kansas - This is an evangelical, non-denominational organization seeking to spread the truth of the Good News about Christ.  Mark and Brenda Brown serve as directors.  Campus Crusade has many activities to help students walk in their Christian faith on a secular campus.  Mark and Brenda have also served in outreach ministries in Lima, Peru and for the Katrina victims in Louisiana.  Visit www.markandbrendabrown.com for more info and prayer requests.

Focus on the Family - Colorado Springs, Colorado - Directed by James Dobson, this ministry seeks to spread Christianity and its principles to families, communities, governments, and societies worldwide. The programs and ministries within this organization are numerous and diverse, but all are based on the principle that if we can keep the family unit strong in Christ and His teachings, then we can, and should have, a positive Christian influence in every other area of society.

Christian Aid - International - Christian Aid sends financial help to over 700 evangelistic ministries based in lands of great poverty or where evangelical Christians are a persecuted minority. Priority is given to supporting those which work among unreached peoples where our Lord has no people.  It also provides assistance to victims of persecution, diseases, and disasters.  Through Christian Aid, FHCC supports, in particular, CAIUA Evangelical Mission and the Slavic Radchuk TV/Radio outreach in the former Soviet Bloc.
