Fellowship Pacific

What Fellowship Pacific does

Fellowship Pacific is a registered Canadian charity and regional network of 100+ evangelical Baptist churches and Christian organizations operating across British Columbia, Yukon, and Manitoba. Operating under the legal name "Fellowship of Evangelical Baptist Churches in BC and Yukon" (Charity #131959777RR0001) and headquartered at the Ministry Centre in Fort Langley, BC, the organization functions as a coordinating body rather than a traditional company. Its core function is to provide church planting support, leadership development, pastoral coaching, and shared administrative resources to its member congregations.

The organization's service portfolio includes the Immerse program (a seminary-level leadership development partnership with Northwest Seminary & College offering MDiv and MA in Biblical Leadership credentials), free online courses hosted on the Teachable platform covering topics like discipleship pathways and board training, coaching services for ministry leaders, an EQ Bootcamp using Birkman and 360-degree assessment tools, Financial Management Solutions for church administration, Church Consultations, and a structured multi-step Church Planting Process. Digital infrastructure is limited to the Teachable LMS and The Commons private online platform; no proprietary technology products are built. Recent church plants include Valley Church in Duncan (140+ attenders), Harbour Community Church in Nanaimo, Maaqtusiis Community Church in Ahousaht (First Nations), and Worship On Air Fellowship (serving Korean immigrants in rural BC).

The business model is donation-based and freemium: all online courses are offered free of charge, and the primary revenue stream consists of tax-receiptable donations designated for church planting initiatives. Multiple payment methods are supported including credit card, PayPal, pre-authorized payment, e-transfer, and cheques. Fundraising is supplemented through events such as the annual Impact Conference and Legacy Dinner (which raised over $18,000 with Baptist Housing matching up to $25,000 annually). The go-to-market approach is community-led, growing through church planting, leadership development programs, and partnerships with existing churches and agencies across the region. Leadership transitioned from Regional Director David Horita to Brent Chapman in May 2025.
