Christmas Eve Candlelight Service
Cathy TučekDecember 22nd, 2019Community Updates
Come as you are: dressed for photos in front of the tree or with the kids in pajamas. Begin a tradition with us Christmas Eve at 5:00 PM. Bring your family and friends to sing the carols and hear the story once again of when Hope came as a human and lived among us. Then stand in the darkness as the first candle is lit and see it slowly spread across the room, candle to candle. Until at last, enveloped in the glow, we remember when The Light came into the world and pierced the darkness.
Why Were the Angels Celebrating?
Geno HildebrandtDecember 15th, 2019Sermons
The Angels praise God

Luke 2:13-14

¹³Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,

¹⁴“Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

Angels are Messengers or Ambassadors of God.

Christmas Choir Sings This Sunday
Come Worship With Them

Each Christmas season a group of Hopites spends weeks (on Mondays, and Saturday mornings no less) rehearsing special music for the seasonal choir worship service. Director Jennifer Boltz and our four part harmony choir will bless us with what they’ve prepared and join in leading worship with the Debbie & Jack Dorman worship team.

Come rejoice and be blessed! And bring a friend or neighbor or co-worker to enjoy the Christmas choir.

Global Christmas is Here!
Ceci ProegerDecember 2nd, 2019Community Updates
It’s the season to bless our workers, both here and abroad, by remembering them and sending gifts.

Write a note!

There will be stationary supplied in the coffee area for you to write a greeting or a blessing to a worker. HGT will collect these and mail them off.

Give a gift!

Out of the side doors of the sanctuary, under the stairs, there are ornaments you can pull off the wall and place in the envelope provided (be sure to lift them up in a quick prayer while you do this!). HGT will collect these and record the amounts after each service. Please be sure to mark the amount and your name on the envelope.

Thank you so much for thinking, praying, and giving towards our workers! We pray this season will be a blessing to you and your family, as well!
