Who We Are
Fellowship Bible Church was planted in September of 1988 by Tentmaker Bible Mission (TBM) missionary William Bagley, Sr. Services were originally held at the Lion's Club in Pleasant Grove, Utah, until in 1993 the land at its current location was purchased and built upon. Services began being held at 375 North State Street in Lindon in 1994. Then, after training and establishing lay-leadership and calling its first full-time pastor, in June of 1997 Fellowship Bible Church graduated from TBM.

Currently we are a growing congregation of roughly 100 in attendance on any given Sunday. It's a great crowd, but our sanctuary only seats just over 100! Because of the crowdedness in our current building, we are in the process of raising funds to build a new building and sanctuary on our remaining land. In the mean time we spend our busier times of year offering two Sunday morning worship services.
Fellowship Bible Church is very blessed to be made up of people from all ages and stages of life. With various developing children's, youth, and college ministries, we have services and activities for all ages.
One great blessing of this ministry is the close family atmosphere it provides. In addition to our devotion to the Word of God and Worship of God during our services, we partake in many other activities to promote fellowship such as camping (for youth and families), picnics, campfires, men's and women's retreats, and others.
