No matter your stage or season of life, we want you and your family to join us! Your family is always welcome here at Hope.
The heart of children's ministry at our church is to teach kids about who God is and how His word applies to their lives in creative and memorable ways. Through engaging teaching, supportive environments, and close-knit small group classes, we guide kids toward a better understanding of what it means to have a real relationship with God. We want kids to know that the Bible is full of exciting stories that matter in their lives today, that fun and games are allowed at church, that worship can be full of loud music and silly dancing, and that there are adults in the church who genuinely want to love and lead them closer to Jesus. In other words, we want them to know that life is much more fun where God is! See Tiffany Blair for more details.
If you spend time around our church, you'll quickly learn one thing: we love students. They're smart. They're funny. They're bold. And they're bursting with potential. We genuinely believe that the middle and high school students are world changers.
That's why student ministry is such a massive part of what we do at our church. We want to guide our students in developing a personal faith in Christ as they step into their specific roles in the story He's writing with their lives. We work hard to create environments that engage students in good conversation about God, encouraging them to ask questions, search out answers, and truly learn to listen to His leading in their lives. See Pastor Jeremy Flatt for more details.
Don't worry; all the good stuff at our church isn't just for the under-18 crowd! We have plenty of engaging events and gatherings designed to build the faith and community of our adults as well. Young or old, Christian or not, single or married, man or woman—we've got a place for you!

We know that attending a church service for the first time can be very scary. At Hope in Christ Fellowship, you can expect friendly, loving, and authentic people, engaging and relevant music and worship, and compelling preaching from the Bible; you will be encouraged and maybe even challenged.
