About Founder's Weekend

Mars Hill Fellowship Church is a community of believers who passionately love God with all of their heart, soul, mind, and strength and love their neighbors as themselves because they have been TRANSFORMED by the power of the gospel. The reality of the gospel enables us to connect to God, our family + community, our vocation and our world in a meaningful way.

Each year at Mars Hill Fellowship Church, we set aside one weekend to pause, reflect, rejoice, and give thanks for all that God has done in the life of our church. 

Celebrating 2 Years of God's Blessing upon Mars Hill Fellowship Church

Friday - Ordination + Worship Service

The theme/focus of the Founders Weekend will be “Be It Unto Me,” with a scriptural emphasis on Luke 1:35-38.  We have planned a special time of worship from across the globe, creative arts presentations, a fellowship offering and the ordination of our ministerial candidates + deacon candidates.
