Fellowship Memphis

What Fellowship Memphis does

Fellowship Memphis is a multi-campus non-profit church organization founded in 2003 and headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee. It operates weekly Sunday worship services at 10:00 AM at its flagship Memphis Harding Academy location (1100 Cherry Road) and a satellite campus, St. George's, in Germantown (8250 Poplar Avenue), with administrative offices at 68 South Prescott Suite #301. The church serves individuals, families, and demographic-specific segments across the Memphis metropolitan area through a portfolio of programs: Fellowship Kids (birth through 5th grade), Fellowship Students (6th-12th grade), Fellowship Women, and Fellowship Men, along with small groups called Circles, a pastoral care and prayer function, and a global missions program that has sent members to over 45 countries on six continents (with a core partner in Point Honduras serving 800 children daily). It also operates a Fellowship Family Podcast and a Fellowship.News announcements site.

The underlying technology stack is light and entirely SaaS-based: a Squarespace-hosted website, Church Center for event registration, kids check-in, serve team signups, baptism forms, and online giving, YouTube for live streaming of services, and Mailchimp for email newsletter distribution. There is no proprietary software, no mobile app, no API surface, and no disclosed AI/ML capabilities. Operational scale is small — approximately 15 staff members — supporting the entire ministry footprint.

The business model is a voluntary donation-based non-profit structure. Revenue is generated exclusively through member tithes and offerings (collected in service and online via Church Center), plus stock donations processed through Fidelity Investments. All services and programs are free of charge. The church has no traditional sales or pricing model, no shareholders, and no external investment; it is governed by an elder board and funded by congregational giving. Reinvestment flows into program operations, facilities, and a redistribution mechanism (Engage Champions) that returns 10% of end-of-year operational gifts to local partner organizations. Member acquisition is community-led — through worship services, referrals, small groups, and demographic-specific events — rather than paid marketing.
