    HopeArts

    Occurring every 3rd Sunday of the month (except for holidays), beginning at 7:00 P.M. theTaizé Service is a contemplative, liturgical service following the lectionary calendar. Numerous moments of silence, liturgy, and lectio divina readings are built into an aestheticaly oriented prayer service. Taizé Services closely follow the French Taizé Community model, a community which began in 1940, and currently boast a community of 100 Catholic and various Protestants who live their lives together as, “a sign of reconciliation between divided Christians and between separated peoples.”

    Community Updates

    Friday, March 4th, 6–8:00 PM at Hope Chapel

    The heart of the Gospel is forgiveness…

    In this 2021 film, discover the amazing true story of Sabina Wurmbrand, a complex woman who discovers a love that fulfills, a love that endures, and a love that forgives. Set in the crucible of war-torn World War II Romania, the true story of Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand (founders of Voice of the Martyrs ministry) is a topsy-turvy adventure through romance, faith and sacrifice. Sabina is the prequel to the 2018 award-winning feature film, Tortured for Christ.

    Admission is free. Film is rated PG13 for thematic content, some disturbing images and violence. With this in mind we are offering childcare for those families who have children under age or not mature enough for this movie.  Cost for childcare is $15 per family. The deadline for childcare and payment is Friday, February 25th. Register for childcare HERE.

    Ten Days of Praise

    "/

    In conjunction with several other initiatives of prayer and worship from Passover to Pentecost, 2021, WayMakers has published a praise guide named Ten Days of Praise.

    Ten Days of Praise

    Ascension to Pentecost
    May 13-22, 2021

    For many, these ten days of worship and praise lead the way to March for Jesus celebrations on May 22, with the theme, “Worthy is the Lamb.” The prayers and praise expressions are embedded in a rich, but simple description of the ascension of Christ as King to fulfill all that God has purposed for all nations.

    Written by Steve Hawthorne, this praise guide is included in Seek God for the City 2021. But this praise guide is also being made available, at no cost, in a pdf format, making it easy to use on any device. Download the document, and let the praise begin!
