Fellowship Church
In February 1989, Young began Fellowship Church out of a rented office complex before moving to an arts center.[8] In 1996, Fellowship Church moved into Irving's MacArthur High School to accommodate five weekend services and a weekly attendance of 5,000. Fellowship Church opened its first permanent facility on a 141-acre (0.57 sq km) property in Grapevine, Texas in 1998.[9]
In 2003, Fellowship Church opened its first two satellite locations in Plano and Fort Worth, TX. A third satellite campus launched two years later in Dallas, TX. Between the four locations, weekly attendance was over 20,000. In May 2006, Fellowship Church opened a satellite campus in South Miami, FL; North Port Florida in 2017.[9] In August 2018, Journey Church in Norman, OK became Fellowship Church Norman.
