“Just as each one has received a gift, use it to serve others, as good stewards of the varied grace of God.” – 1 Peter 4:10
Hope’s purpose is to share God’s love to our community and world through service, hospitality,
compassion, and prayer. We respond to the needs of our congregation and neighbors through inspirational worship, music, small groups, outreach, and fellowship together.

Through your generous contributions in 2025, we have launched Hope’s “Cultivating Community” Ministry, and we are looking toward a bright future of Living Our Faith together with our neighbors.

Bible Study
Join one of Hope’s Bible Study groups as we delve into a study on the popular tv series,
The Chosen. The Chosen is a historical drama series that brings the life of Jesus Christ to the screen through the eyes of those who encountered him, offering a fresh, relatable perspective on familiar biblical characters and events. In our study groups, we will watch the video together, and then we will have discussion using the study guide book: What Does It Mean to Be Chosen?: An Interactive Bible Study. The study groups will meet in person, and there will be an option to join via zoom. Contact Pastor Christie with questions, and we look forward to having YOU be a part of this special and engaging study.
