The ministry of Dominion Fellowship Church was birthed on 2nd Sunday, February 10, 2008, through the vision of Pastor Derrick G. Jackson and the partnership of over 30 founding members. The new church was launched with the episcopal blessings of Bishop Derek T. Triplett, senior pastor of Hope Fellowship Church of Daytona Beach, Florida (the “mother” church). Dominion Fellowship Church was established to be a blessing to the Northeast Florida community with Flagler County as its main focus. God spoke to the heart of Pastor Jackson to help empower the community to experience Dominion in Jesus Christ. For over four years, the congregation of Dominion Fellowship has endeavored to accomplish this mission.
Since its inception, Dominion Fellowship Church (DFC) has launched the following ministries and auxiliaries: Ministers, Deacons, Elders Council, Music, Hospitality, Pulpit Support, New Members, ONE, Christian Education, Children, Youth, Young Adults, Intercessory Prayer, Fiscal Affairs (Finance), Events, Outreach, and Historian. DFC has facilitated monthly Holy Communion service, weekly Sunday School, weekly Dominion Life Bible Study, and weekly Intercessory Prayer conference calls since 2008. Ministry events held during the past four years include the Creativity Seminar, Back to School Bash, Friends and Family Day, Park Evangelism, annual church picnics, annual church and pastoral anniversaries, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day celebrations, Vacation Bible School, Bible Bowl, Advent, Christmas play, Resurrection Day (Easter) and Pentecost celebrations, Women's History Month celebrations, Christian Stewardship in Communications–VMO and Baptism at Flagler Beach.
Dominion Fellowship Church established its first community outreach initiative in December 2008, becoming a local food distribution site for Angel Food Ministries. This national food relief ministry, headquartered in Monroe, Georgia USA, seeks to assist everyone with purchasing top quality foods at a reduced price. In September 2011, Angel Food Ministries ceased its operations. Dominion Fellowship Church processed over 1,500 orders and distributed over 4,000 boxes of food during its partnership with Angel Food Ministries.
Dominion Fellowship Church continues its commitment to community outreach through a new partnership with One Harvest Food Ministries, a regional food distribution ministry. One Harvest Food Ministries, based in Loganville, Georgia USA, is a non-profit, non-denominational, faith based organization that is committed to helping American families, offering affordable family meal solutions.
Dominion Fellowship Church has participated in various local community events, including the Palm Coast Starlight Holiday Parades and the African-American Cultural Society Kwanzaa Celebration. Dominion Fellowship also sponsored the 2010 & 2012 African American History Celebration and Class Project Contests held at Rymfire Elementary School in Palm Coast. DFC Ministry partners have included the following organizations: Hope Fellowship Church-Daytona Beach, Abundant Life Ministries-Hope House Inc., Palm Coast Bible Church, and Vision Ministries Outreach, Inc. (VMO).
The relevant ministry of Dominion Fellowship Church has resulted in a number of people becoming Christian converts, receiving Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. The nurturing environment of Dominion Fellowship Church has resulted in more mature Christians and new, developing church leaders. Members and various ministry partners have sought to strengthen their family/personal relationships, continue their educational pursuits, and expand their careers as a result of the ministry they have received through Dominion Fellowship Church. In October 2009, the church licensed 5 ministers and ordained 2 ministers. The ministry also ordained 1 deacon in September 2010.
God is using Dominion Fellowship, a young church, to do great and mighty works to His glory. DFC is becoming one of the most significant churches in the area, and it has only scratched the surface of what is to come as it positively impacts the community and helps build the Kingdom of God. Pray for Dominion Fellowship Church as the ministry invests its energy, efforts and resources into bringing the vision to fruition.
