Fellowship Trust
FIEC Limited is a registered charity and trust corporation working under the title Fellowship Trust. It manages the trusts of some 230 evangelical churches. The company’s function is to safeguard a church’s doctrinal position and any other conditions of its Trust Deed.
Corporate trusteeship avoids the inconvenience and expense of periodically updating a Trust Deed. The company also keeps track of new developments affecting churches at a time when the charity sector is being subjected to increasing regulation.

Famous quotes containing the words fellowship and/or trust:
“Have no fellowship with one that is mightier and richer than thyself: for how agree the kettle and the earthen pot together? For if the one be smitten against the other, it shall be broken.”
—Apocrypha. Ecclesiasticus 13:2.
“We have been educated to such a fine—or dull—point that we are incapable of enjoying something new, something different, until we are first told what it’s all about. We don’t trust our five senses; we rely on our critics and educators, all of whom are failures in the realm of creation. In short, the blind lead the blind. It’s the democratic way.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
