We have building space for growth. Changes are being made to make the church more and more in tune with the approaches that reach present-day people. New Hope is in a good position to not only welcome new people, but to let them become easily engaged in the church fellowship, and to find a place of ministry that fits ones talents, passions, and gifts for ministry.
We will think and act on activities that will make this a better community. To help facilitate community activities and programs that are needed. To be seen as a catalyst around which a community comes closer together. Hold open the notion that God may want to make this a Regional Church.
We take seriously the Spiritual Gifts Ministry. Rather than setting up ministries we think ought to be done and trying to find volunteers to do them, we seek to help people find a ministry that is the Right Fit for each person, and support them in doing it.
Community Building
New Hope will seek to contribute to a sense of community in the surrounding area, being a warm center of people to gather for worship, fellowship building, and learning to be a Christfollower.
Community Church
