NEXT MINISTRY YEAR VISION / BUDGET.
Thank you so much to everyone who prayerfully considered our next ministry year priorities and finances, gave input, and voted on our budget. More church members participated in this important process than ever before and our budget has been unanimously approved! If you missed our vision and budget presentation, you can view the video recording, beginning at minute 49, here and you can access our vision letter and budget summary here. If you have questions, please contact our Executive Pastor Arik Stewart or any of our elders.
9 AM SUNDAY WORSHIP | SEPTEMBER 3. This week we look at a third priority for Hope in the coming year – being a church where friends feel welcome. Ministry Coordinator, Tara Farrell, brings a discussion on who in our lives are friends and neighbors who could benefit from what Hope Church has to offer – and how we can continue to make Hope a welcoming place for people of all nations, backgrounds and kinds. Join us this Sunday at 9 a.m. as we worship together, engage ideas together, and welcome all who would come and discover the unimaginable love of Jesus! If you are unable to join us in person, please visit the 9 a.m. livestream or view the recording here.
