No matter what service you choose, we promise God always shows up. After all, it’s His church and he’s at the center of all we do! We intentionally offer a wide variety of options for worship – from traditional to contemporary – and remain open to new waves of innovation sent to the church by the Holy Spirit. So, whether you are looking for a weekend evening or morning worship opportunity, or are out of town and need a midweek service, we’ve got something for everyone and we hope you will join us!
One of our Core Values at Hope is that following Jesus is a growing experience. We can't outgrow Christian faith. As modern day disciples of Jesus Christ, we are called to move from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity For this reason, we strive to bring people into an ever-growing relationship with Jesus Christ. This growth best happens in life groups (Acts 2:42-47). As we grow in faith, we turn our hearts to God, giving of ourselves and our resources – freely and cheerfully (2 Corinthians 9:7)
Serving others is one of the greatest blessings God offers us. Acts of selfless service allow us to bring glory to God and shine his light in this world! Whether you are looking to serve here at Hope, or outside in our community or around the world, we have a number of places for you to jump right in and be the hands and feet of Jesus to our brothers and sisters in Christ!
The Care Ministry exists to reach out to the members, friends, and families of the church and community, and share the everlasting love of Jesus Christ with those in need of special care. The people serving in this ministry seek to be present during the storms of life, bringing the presence of Christ and the promises of God. We welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can best support you!
We believe kids are important because God believes kids are important! Through dynamic teaching, worship, and activities, our hope it is to reach kids with the love of Jesus and teach them all we can about him! We want them to know God made them, that he is their friend, and that they can be real and honest with God.

HopeKids is our high-energy, weekend program for children age 3 (by Sept. 15 and potty-trained) through grade 5. At HopeKids, children will experience dynamic teachings and upbeat worship songs during opening and closing worship, with relevant breakout activities in between. This rotational style format is a great way to engage kids in learning about God’s love!
HopeKids will be weekly throughout the school year.
Register for HopeKids
If you’re feeling the nudge to help out with HopeKids, it’s easy to volunteer! The only requirements are that you love Jesus, love kids, register to volunteer, and fill out a background check form as part of the volunteer registration form (because the safety of our kids has always been a high value at Hope). We’ll take care of the rest, including all the training and support you need to help point thousands of kids to the everlasting love of Jesus Christ!
