Our Ministries

The Bible teaches that all Christians are ministers. Whether our occupations are in publishing, finance, real estate or law, we are all called to minister for the sake of the Gospel. God has blessed all of us with various talents and skills, so that they may be used to bring about the mission of Christ in the life of the church and to the world. Thus, the members of Hope dedicate their time, energy, and resources to various ministries that are critical to accomplishing this mission.

We believe experiencing God in worship is one of the most important aspects of the life of a Christian. Those in this ministry are always finding creative ways to keep worship relevant, cogent, and free from distractions. Sub-ministries include the Praise Team Ministry, which is responsible for all musical aspects of the worship life of the church, and the Audio/Visual Ministry, which is responsible for all the multi-media aspects of worship.
