How it all started...
FPC began in April of 1995 when Pastor James W. Jackson, and a handful of family and friends, opened its doors. FPC had its first worship service in a small class room on the West side of Indianapolis, 2447 West Mount Street in room 214. FPC later expanded into the adjacent class room, 219 and remained at those locations for almost 3 years. FPC sought the Lord and under the leadership of Pastor Jackson began believing God for land to build a church on.
Expanding the vision...
FPC purchased nearly ten acres of land on the Far East side of Indianapolis after completing a supernatural building fund raising campaign. FPC was given over forty lots of real estate by a local businessman, that was used to buy land and make renovations. We started Bible Study in the small farm house that was on what we called “the land.” Soon after, renovated the small detached garage and moved its worship services into that space in 1999.
FPC prayed and believed in God to build its first building that would seat 125 people. The building was purchased, and then constructed by Effectual Touch; a design and building company owned and operated by FPC. FPC moved into its new worship facility in 2000, which gave space for the two buildings to be used for its daycare and Christian school. The Fervent Care Childcare and Christian school currently serves more than 150 families each day.
FPC moved forward to start construction on its fourth building project and moved into its new multiuse facility in 2004. FPC took another step of faith a few years later for a daycare and Christian school facility. The new facility was completed, along with the purchase of nine additional acres of land adjacent to the existing to give more space to serve its community.

Where we are headed...
FPC is currently home to about 500 members and continues to serve its community through numerous outreaches: a daily radio program on AM1310 The light, a weekly television program and a strong social media presence.
