🙏 Hope Church Believes in the Power of Prayer
We have two opportunities for our Congregation to pray for our members and friends. Each week on our HopeLine, you can view a list of our members and friends who have requested prayers. Hope’s prayer group meets every Wednesday to pray for these folks. They encourage the Congregation to pray for each of them as well.
On Sundays during the Worship Service, we show on the slide projection screens timely prayer requests for members of Hope to pray for during the service. This list is for members who are in assisted living or nursing homes, undergoing surgery, in treatment, or have other concerns for the coming week. The Worship Committee will contact members on this list each month to see if they want to continue to be on the list.

Join us on Sunday, November 23rd, as the Deacons host our annual Hanging of the Greens. After the 10:30 AM service, we will decorate the Sanctuary together and enjoy a time of fellowship. Lunch will be provided. We would love your help! Please sign up to participate.
