Our Journey from a Women's Ministry to a Thriving Church
Rooted in faith, growing through resilience
Fortitude Church began seven years ago as Women of Wisdom and Wellness, a small ministry led by Pastor Dr. Donna Medley behind a salon chair. From sharing stories of perseverance with clients, it blossomed into a vibrant community dedicated to spiritual strength and support. Today, we serve diverse members, fostering growth through faith and practical guidance.
"With God all things are possible"
Fortitude Church centers its mission on teaching believers to stand firm in faith and persevere through life's challenges. Rooted in biblical truth, we emphasize resilience as a spiritual discipline essential for fulfilling God’s purpose.
Our core beliefs focus on God’s unwavering strength in weakness, the power of community support, and the call to live with courage and hope. We equip members to develop spiritual fortitude that sustains them through every season.
Our Mission and Core Beliefs
testimonial
I gained exactly what I wanted - fellowship and relationship. I have
had fun being with my "sisters", but I have gotten to know them more
and make more of a friendship with them. It has enabled me to feel
so much more connected, like I am forming the "tribe" I desire to
have in life. I found that even though I am "different" in some ways
than everyone else, I can still be comfortable (this has always been a
major problem for me - feeling like I don't belong, or need to act a
certain way to fit in)...
