What's new at Hope.

  1. Hope Chapel work day

    Join us for our annual spring cleanup day as we make progress on new projects and do the cleaning that always needs to be done. On the list of things that will be done this year is repainting in the main building, garage cleanout, outdoor landscaping cleanup, and the standard window, bathroom, and floor cleaning.

    Feel free to reach out to Wes Neely if you have any questions or want to point out a specific cleaning need or if you want to help in a unique way.

    Breakfast and lunch will be provided.

  2. Good Friday

    Our Good Friday service includes music along with seven Hopites’ meditations and reflections on the seven sayings of Jesus at His crucifixion. It is always a very beautiful and poignant time. Come on Friday, March 29th from 6:30-8:30 PM to hear, worship, and remember Our Lord’s sacrifice.

    Please feel free to bring your friends, family, co-workers and/or neighbors.

    We recommend the service for children ages 6th grade and up but leave this to the parent’s discretion. Testimonies given may contain more mature content. A meaningful HopeKids program is provided: RSVPs for Kindergarten and under are still open; 1st-5th is now closed. Sign up by clicking here. Contact Joelene Michel with questions.

    The Christian celebration of Jesus’ Resurrection.

    From the New Testament, the Gospel (Good News) of John, Chapter 20:

    Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.

    They asked her, ‘Woman, why are you crying?’

    ‘They have taken my Lord away,’ she said, ‘and I don’t know where they have put him.’ 

    At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there…Jesus said, ‘…Go…to my brothers and tell them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’

    Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.”
