A guest post by Howard Kessa of Floulex Web, who built this website.
On the wall behind the pulpit at Love, Faith Ministries hangs a white banner with a red heart, a cross with light at its center, and one line in flowing script: “Where we’re living a Victorious life in Jesus Christ.” It was the first thing I noticed in the photos Pastor Jessie Hall sent me, and it told me what this non-denominational church in Fate, Texas is about before I had read a single answer on the form.
A church that began in a home
Pastor Jessie is from Tyler, Texas, and Lady Tammy Hall is from Fort Worth. They were married in Tyler in 2007. After five years of marriage and ministry together, their pastors released them to go to Mesquite, Texas, to start the ministry God had called them to. In 2015, inspired by the Holy Spirit, they started Love, Faith Ministries as a home-based ministry, teaching people to love, have faith in God and how to live a Victorious Life in Jesus Christ.
In 2021 God led them to Fate. In the church’s own words, that is where His vision has really begun to grow, and “through good times and bad times God has shown himself strong!” You can read the whole story on the About page.
Meeting Pastor Jessie and Lady Tammy
I spoke with Pastor Jessie by phone, with Lady Tammy listening in and asking good questions. What came through on our calls was a church that wants to grow so it can reach more souls. When I asked Pastor Jessie to write a few words about himself for the website, part of what he wrote was one plain line: “I love God and my family.”
The church describes itself as a Spirit-filled church that loves people, teaching in simplicity and understanding. I tried to keep that same plainness on every page of this site: short pages, real times, and nothing a first-time guest has to decode.
What a first Sunday in Fate looks like
If you are thinking about visiting, here is what to know before you come:
- Sunday Prayer is at 9:30 AM, Life Skills Class at 10:00 AM, and Worship runs from 10:45 AM to 12:00 PM.
- The church meets at 280 Jefferson Lane, Fate, Texas 75189.
- Come in through the front entrance. Greeters are there to serve you.
- Children’s church is available.
- As for what to wear, the church’s answer was “a mix of all of it.”
The Plan a Visit page has the map and every time in one place.
Their week
Sunday is not the only day this church gathers. Life Skills Class meets again on Wednesday nights from 6:00 to 6:45 PM. Every other week, on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6:00 to 6:30 PM, the church holds Fearless Prayer, on Facebook Live or in person. Pastor Jessie’s preaching is also on YouTube.
Ministries for every age
On the fourth Sunday of the month, Youth Fellowship gets together after church for bowling, skating, game day and more. Children’s church is available during Sunday Worship. You can see each of these on the Ministries page.
Why I was glad to build this one
Building church websites is how I serve, and I shape every one around the church it belongs to. This one is built around that banner behind the pulpit, a Sunday morning laid out hour by hour, and a young church family in Fate that wants to reach more souls. If you live nearby, I hope you will visit on a Sunday. If you have a question first, the Contact page will reach the church, or you can call 972-940-2700.
Thank you, Pastor Jessie and Lady Tammy, for trusting me with this work, and thank you for reading. This website was built by Floulex Web.
