Take Your Next Right Step

Next Steps

Follow Jesus

By following Jesus, you can receive the grace and forgiveness He offers. This decision can begin with a prayer as simple as this: Thank you, Jesus, for dying on the cross for my sin, and offering me grace and forgiveness so that I can have peace with God. I want to follow You with my whole life, and I humbly ask You to lead me into a relationship with You. Email us

Baptism

Baptism is an outward sign of an inward change. It symbolizes a believer finding new life in Jesus and publicly identifying himself or herself as a Christ-follower. Baptism takes place during Sunday morning worship services on various dates at each of our campuses. Learn more

First Step

If you are new to Fairhaven or want to learn more about who we are and what we believe, First Step is the place to start. In First Step, you will learn about our vision, our values, and the truths we live by. This small group experience is also a great place for you to meet new people and build relationships with others. Learn more

Small Groups

Life is better lived in circles than in rows, which is why community is so important to us. Small groups are made up of 8-12 people who meet in homes for study, discussion and prayer. You can join an existing group, or start your own! Learn more

Serve Teams

We believe that lending a hand helps us grow closer to Jesus and find hope – and sharing our time and talents is a key part of that. We have opportunities for you to lend a hand by serving at Fairhaven, in our community, and around the world. Learn more

Giving

When you give to Fairhaven Church, you’re taking your next right step by trusting God with your finances. Your generosity makes it possible for us to impact children, students and adults through our ministries, help the under-served in our community, and support our global staff who are sharing the message of Jesus around the world. Learn more

Membership

Any Christ-follower who regularly attends Fairhaven Church is welcome to become part of our covenant membership. There are two parts to becoming a member of Fairhaven – attending First Step and then meeting with an Elder to share your spiritual journey.  Learn more

Child dedication

Your child’s dedication is your public declaration to commit yourself to raise your child to know Christ as their Savior, and that you commit yourself, as parents, to provide an environment in which that can happen. Child Dedication services are offered twice per year at each of our campuses. Learn more

Prayer

A vibrant prayer life helps us know God better. By committing to consistent time in prayer, we will experience a stronger connection to God, a greater awareness of His presence, and a palpable sense of peace. Take our prayer challenge and listen to our prayer series to learn more. Learn more
