What's new at Hope.

  1. 8 Minutes Max

    8MM is an intimate, responsive venue for artists to present their works and receive audience feedback, and for all to enjoy soaking in a creative atmosphere. And the next one is October 11th from 6-8:30 p.m. Performance spots are still open; contact Kevin Daniel to sign up or for details. The evening is also a potluck so bring a reception-style dish or dessert.

    Child care RSVPs end on Wednesday, October 1st at 5:00 p.m. Contact Kevin Daniel with the names and ages of your children to sign up.

  2. Baptisms and Annual Picnic

    Sunday, June 8th, we will have one service at 10:00 AM, followed by baptisms and a picnic! We’ll baptize the adults and children in a big water trough on our campus. Then we’ll picnic in the backyard (and the Family Room).

    Kids, bring your suits for the water slide! Adults, bring a side dish to share:

    A-H: Vegetable dish
    I-Q: Salad
    R-Z: Dessert

    Everyone please bring lawn chairs and sunscreen.

    Drop off your food items in the Family Room before the service with serving utensils.

  3. “Walmarting” Outreach Training Saturday Night

    If you are interested in going on our prayer-walking outreach called “Walmarting,” but would like to learn more about how prophecy and evangelism can work together, come to our Walmarting Training on Saturday, July 19th from 8:30-10:00 p.m. The training is led by Diane Wall, who is very experienced in hosting this training in an easy and accessible way. You’ll get to practice praying and encouraging others in a joyful and loving environment and hear encouraging stories!

    Currently, teams go out Saturday nights. In the future, teams may form at a different time during the week. Even if you could not typically go out on a Saturday, Matt still encourages you to come check out the training for your own personal edification and possible involvement in other settings.


    Email Matt Ryniker if you are thinking about coming. Let’s explore and practice what it means for Christians to hear from God in order to build others up.

  4. Reception for our Friends from Overseas

    Our friends are in town from overseas and we get to fête them with an appetizer and dessert reception! Come straight from work for appetizers or bring the family (after an early dinner) for desserts. Visit and catch up with what’s been happening in their lives before they head home.

  5. Meet & Greet

    The 3rd Sunday of August after both services, Hope has a Meet & Greet. Make plans to invite a friend that day for the after the service Meet and Greet in the Family Room. We’ll have a light meal after each service. Guests will meet Geno and some of the leadership.
