YEAR-END GIVING | THANK YOU! Throughout December we shared Hope’s financial need and asked everyone to consider helping the church with end-of-year gifts and renewed commitments to give consistently in 2022. Regarding giving consistently in the New Year, please continue to pray about this and join us if you are so led! Concerning end-of-year gifts, many of you were led to trust God in significant ways which produced individual and collective glory-to-God generosity! 34 households gave end-of-year gifts making our December income total $101,000. THANK YOU!
SUNDAY WORSHIP 9 AM | JANUARY 16. Happiness comes and goes as circumstances change but joy transcends all circumstances, and Jesus wants his followers to experience it. He taught us to abide not only to enact God’s redemptive plan for the world and to glorify the Father, but so that we can fully experience His joy. Join us on Sunday at 9 a.m. in person or online as we worship together and learn how we can each experience Christ’s immense joy. This Sunday, Pastor Arik brings us a message entitled The Joy of Abiding from John 15:1-11.
HOSTING. This week’s Sunday Gathering will be hosted by the Platt Park Hope Group.
COVID-19 PROTOCOL UPDATE. In light of Denver’s current mask mandate, we ask that you wear a mask while inside Hope’s building. Our staff continues to provide heightened sanitation and ventilation measures throughout the building and is providing masks and hand sanitizer at all entrances and exits.
