Mission/Vision
Our mission is evolved and created through Christ instruction, command and inspiration found in the Great Commission which empowers us. Mission/VisionSomething one wants to do, a “purpose,” and or structure. Our mission tells who we are and our reason for existence. Descriptive words such as: empowering, sharing, caring, effort, witnessing, changing lives, provision and salvation were offered up by the members. We concluded most of our words were action oriented words. Action words ought to state; what we stand for and what we intend to accomplish. We also felt that words such as; global, local, reaching the lost, prison ministry, voice of women, virtue, integrity and comforting defined our fulfillment of the Great Commission. As a team we expounded on many ideas and formulations and assessed the following as our mission as the Outreach Ministry of Faith Family Community Church.

• Identify and determine a location for which God requires FFCC to serve.
• Gain input and approval on location from membership.
• Maintain FFCC Base Membership upon relocating to new worship site.
Church Criteria• Location – Safe place for family, and easy highway access. (We
believe people travel down Hwy 51 and 17 to visit churches on Jefferson Street. A location off Hwy 51 offers a centrally located church to attend.)
• Area of Growth – We will be in an area of growth that supports the church’s mission
• Exclusivity – We are the only inhabitants of the building and property.
• Longevity – We may be in this location for 2- 3 years as we finalize the location for our permanent church home.
• Square Footage/ Usable Space (2500 – 3000 sf) – We need space to accommodate activities such as:
Children’s Church, Sunday School, Sanctuary ,Children’s Playground Equipment Storage, Nursery, Fellowship (Store/Serve Food) Parking for 100 +cars
• Cost• Attractiveness – Building and location
Timeline• Based on Building Fund Goal approved by the
Church Council, the time frame may take 24 – 36 months to secure adequate down payment and closing cost funds to meet Church Criteria.
• Timeline in identifying potential properties is on going. As of today, only 1 church on the market meets our Church’s Criteria with an asking price of 1.6 million.
Building Fund Requirement
• Church Council Approved a Building Fund Goal $350,000 dollars.
Note: Goal amount was derived from obtaining an 80% mortgage on a 1.6
million property.
• Current Building Fund Total ~ $100,000
• Need an additional $250,000 to meet target goal.
