Fellowship of Barnabas Partners is composed of Houston-area Christians — business people, educators, government representatives, ministry leaders, and others — who want to be better equipped to help nonprofits.
What Sets Us Apart?
Strategic Focus
We focus on addressing strategic nonprofit issues rather than meeting financial needs.
Deep Engagement
We engage with ministries and nonprofits over time, getting to know their leadership, strengths, needs, and unique mission.
Effective Preparation
We prepare ourselves for more effective nonprofit work through issue-specific meetings.
FBP is the premier network in Houston where Christian business, community, and ministry leaders can regularly interact. When you join the Fellowship as a Partner you support our encouragement and educational efforts. Successive levels of Partnership brings additional benefits for you.
What does it mean to be a "faith-based" nonprofit?
Speaker: Michelle Shonbeck
Wednesday, Feb 26
Breakfast 7:30a to 9:30a
Networking 9:30a to 11:30a (optional)
If a nonprofit is "faith-based," what does that mean about legal formation and IRS status, hiring, statements of faith and funding sources? What doors open, and which doors close? Michelle Shonbeck, Executive Director of Christian Community Service Center, will share wisdom she has gained in this area through more than thirty years in her role.
