What's new at Hope.

  1. WOH Gathering

    George Miley put it well when he talked about key insights we learn by living with Jesus the Teacher: “Insight #1: Deep life change is not primarily a matter of behavior but of inner character transformation. The core human problem is the condition of the heart.” Come join us as we dive deeper into inner healing – the importance of it and what it looks like. 

    We will be meeting at Deborah Costenbader’s house. Contact Joelene Michel for directions and any questions.

    RSVP & sign up to bring a snack HERE! (drinks will be provided)

  2. Parent/Child Dedication Class

    Join us as we discuss the “why” of dedicating your child to the Lord, and principles for creating a Christian home. If you want to dedicate a child this spring or simply be encouraged in your parenting journey, please join Pastor Matt Ryniker and Children’s Ministry Director, Hala Tompkins for a time of encouragement and equipping as you prepare to dedicate the newest member of your family to the Lord Jesus.

    RSVP for childcare by contacting hala.

    If you’d like to dedicate your child this Sunday, plan on participating in the class taught by Pastor Matt on April 8. The class runs from 6-7:30pm on Wednesday, April 8, 2026. Contact hala for more information.
