ABOUT US


We are excited that you are choosing to check out Fellowship of Praise Church. We want to make your experience a great one! Whether this is your first time in Clarksville or you live down the road,  we can’t wait to welcome you home!

The mission of Fellowship of Praise Church is to be a place to REACH the hurting, REPAIR the broken, RESTORE the fallen, and REJOICE in the process. We work hard to make that a reality for all our FOP family members. The ministry of Fellowship of Praise Church has stretched far beyond the state limits of Ohio and into other countries such as Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. No matter where you've come from, there's a place for you in the FOP family.

A group of young boys sit in a classroom. The focus is on a boy with blonde hair in a blue shirt, looking up and smiling with his hands clasped.
A man with short gray hair in a green polo shirt smiles while speaking into a microphone on a stage with dramatic blue lighting.
A young woman with long brown hair smiles warmly as she stands in a group of women who are talking and laughing together at an indoor event.
A person's arm, wearing a smartwatch, is raised in a crowd. The scene is illuminated by a deep blue light, with a blurry screen in the background.
A woman in a striped dress and a young girl in a pink dress stand side-by-side in a sunlit lobby, both smiling and laughing warmly.

WHAT WE
BELIEVE

There is one eternally existing God who has three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of all that exists, both visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy of all glory and praise.  God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness, knowledge, wisdom,  justice, and mercy. He is unchangeable and therefore is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Humans, both male and female, were created in God's image for His glory. The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created without sin and appointed as caretakers of the rest of God's creations.
When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God, they ceased to be what they were made to be and became distorted images of God. This caused them to fall out of fellowship with God, and fractured all of creation ever since that time.

Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.

The Church is meant to be the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

God has revealed himself to us through his son, Jesus Christ, who is the visible image of the invisible God, the holy scriptures, and through all of creation itself.

Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth.
