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!

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!

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!
Our Locations
