Agape Fellowship Church
On November 6, 1983, the late Rev. Charlie James White, Sis. Laura White, children and seven Saints gathered under a pecan tree at the home of Deacon and Sister Lucius Lewis. They sang "Victory Shall Be Mine". Paster White spoke briefly on "Where the Word Dwells" taking scripture from Ephesians 3:17; I Corinthians 3:16:17, and St. John 15:7. This was the beginning of Agape Fellowship Church.
On Sunday, November 13, 1983, services were held at 619 South Avenue G in Freeport, Texas. Later during August 1991 the church was relocated to 1302 West Broad in Freeport, Texas where services are ongoing. Paster White was called to Glory on January 5, 1997. During this time the Agape Fellowship Church family obeyed the instructions of their founded and accepted Rev. Hannis John Prince, Jr. as Senior Pastor on January 14, 1997.
Rev. Prince began his pastoral duties on Sunday, January 19, 1997. One evening during a Bible study, Pastor Prince announced that the mortgage loan will be paid in full and on July 22, 1998, the mortgage loan was paid in full and the mortgage loan papers were burned. On October 5, 1999, a ribbon cutting ceremony was held in honor of our founder the late Rev. C.J. White. As of September 1, 2000, Agape Fellowship of Freeport became incorporated thanks to a God-sent CPA, Mrs. Sondra Burton-Sykes.
The history of Agape Fellowship Church continues as the church flourishes with a fervent vision under a strong leadership. Pastor Prince has allowed the Holy Ghost to take full control of the ministries that have been birthed within the church. Our slogan "The Haven of Love", a ministry where everyday is a "new beginning".
