OUR STORY
In 1998, Pastor Travis Hurst, began a Bible study in a performing arts studio located in downtown Shawnee, Oklahoma. The small group of believers began to grow under God’s guidance and, subsequently, praise and worship and teaching were added to each gathering. Within one year, Faith Christian Outreach had raised enough money and resources to purchase property for a new facility.
Faithco moved to its current location just off highway 177 near I-40 in 1999. We had our first public worship experience on April 30, 2000–Easter Sunday–in phase one of the new facility. Each year we continue to grow and to see many people added to His Kingdom.
Our passion is apparent as we continue to lead hundreds to come to know Christ through our ministry every year.
