What’s Happening at Hope?

Get Involved

At Hope West Des Moines, there are lots of ways to get involved. Connect with friends old and new alike, find ways to help the community, and continue to grow in your faith journey. Go beyond weekend worship by getting involved in classes, joining a group, or serving with one of our dozens of mission partners or at Hope.

You were made for more! Let us help you discover how you can make a difference.

Find a Class

Following Jesus is a growing experience. Even the most mature Christians continue to move around the Hope Circle. We have hundreds of classes and events to help you on your journey, including The Alpha Course, Bible studies, support groups, prayer classes and many more. There’s something for everyone at Hope!

Join a Group

Find your people! At first Hope might seem like a big place, but if you stop and take a look around, you’ll notice we have all kinds of small groups doing book or bible studies together. Make new friends, do life together, pray for one another, and create enduring relationships whether you’re a introvert or extrovert. We’re better together!

Volunteer at Hope

Serving others is one of the greatest blessings from God. Bring glory to God and shine your light to the world! Be a greeter, help serve food, teach children, mentor a junior high school student, run audiovisuals, play in the orchestra, be a prayer partner or go on a mission trip! There are all kinds of ways to be the hands and feet of Jesus to our brothers and sisters in Christ!

A Church After God’s Own Heart

2024 Year-Long Theme

Ten sermon series over 12 months that challenge each one of us individually as Christians, and collectively as a church, to consider how we might draw closer to God and discover the purpose of life this side of heaven. Join us as we focus in on the four “G’s” Gather, Grow, Group and Give – and live out God’s calling for us both individually and as a church family!
