You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light- bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:16
GOD BEHIND BARS MINISTRY
Bringing hope and restoration to those behind bars is a mission we’re committed to. TFH has partnered with God Behind Bars to pioneer this work in New York State, offering live worship, teaching, outreach, special events, and re-entry support for incarcerated individuals. We’re also helping lead the way for other churches across the state to join this effort.

HAITI ILE A VACHE
We’re partnering with Elevating Christian Ministries (ECM) to help feed around 5,000 children under 13 across 18 schools on Ile a Vache, a neglected island off Haiti with little to no government support. ECM is developing programs that restore dignity, create jobs through local businesses (like baking, brickmaking, and chicken farming), that strengthens the local economy through the purchasing of locally sourced products.

DAYCARE CENTER & PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
At the heart of our mission is a simple truth: faith is most powerful when it meets people where they are. For many families, that means support as they balance work, parenting, and the desire to raise their children in a safe environment. Developing a Daycare Center is an opportunity to align ministry with sustainability and service. This space will provide quality care where children are nurtured and learning is rooted in curiosity and Christ-like values. As a revenue-generating initiative, it will also support long-term investment in the holistic care of children and families.

HOPE FESTIVAL 2025
This year marks our ninth Day of Hope, an ongoing movement of compassion and connection. As we expand our initiative through Summer Circles, we’re bringing hope even closer. Every donation helps provide real, practical support like health services, school supplies, meals, haircuts, and more delivered through local teams and projects. Together, we’re uplifting our city in personal, powerful ways that remind people they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
