Fair Haven Christian Church sits on the southernmost part of Johnson County, about 35 minutes south of Indianapolis. The church began about 75 years ago in the rural community of Trafalgar. God has blessed the church with sustained growth; currently, the church has around 650 in attendance on Sunday morning, which includes about 110 children. While the church’s physical address is in the city of Franklin, Fair Haven is in the Trafalgar community.
