At New Hope, everyone is welcomed and can belong before they believe. We strive to create an inclusive, invitational space. New Hope isn’t an insider group; it’s a community where all are invited to journey toward Jesus together. Join us in practicing radical hospitality, embodying the grace of belonging as we move toward Jesus together.
"Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms."
1 Peter 4:9-10

We practice giving up what we want for what we desire even more: a community that reflects the love and grace of Jesus. We believe generosity goes beyond finances to include our time, treasure, and talents. Join us in living out sacrificial generosity as we pursue what matters most together.
"For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. And here is my judgment about what is best for you in this matter. Last year you were the first not only to give but also to have the desire to do so. Now finish the work, so that your eager willingness to do it may be matched by your completion of it, according to your means. For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have."
2 Corinthians 8:9-12
We believe Jesus calls us to serve anyone, anywhere, just as he did. We aim to place others above ourselves, caring for their needs and stepping down to lift others up and creating a community marked by love and service. Join us as we embody uncommon humility, following Jesus’ example of true service to others.
"Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too."
From Philippians 2:1-11
At New Hope, we believe that when we keep our eyes on Jesus and embrace the mission, vision, and values he gives us, the impact is undeniable: transformed lives and decisions for Christ. As we live in his presence, under his authority, and carry his message forward, we partner in God’s work of renewal and transformation. This mission shapes us to reflect Jesus and creates an enduring impact that touches lives and expands his Kingdom. Join us as we pursue this mission together, striving for a Kingdom impact that changes lives.
"Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.'"
Matthew 28:16-20
