Come and See!
At Hope, we know worship is a “getta” instead of a “gotta!” In our worship and in our ministry, we intentionally offer a wide variety of options – traditional and contemporary, in person and online – to reach people of all ages and backgrounds. Whatever service you choose, you will always receive a warm welcome at a church that loves you and loves to worship the Lord!
Hope’s Celebration Services are high-energy, contemporary, Spirit-filled services in the Worship Center:
Saturday, 5:00 pm
Sunday, 8:00, 9:15 & 11:00 am and 5:00 pm
Hope’s Celebration Services at a Glance:
While you can expect the same great message and contemporary worship, each of Hope’s celebration services is uniquely different. We invite you to join us for the one that works best for you!
- Saturday, 5:00 pm – Come-as-you-are, Spirit-filled
- Sunday, 8:00 am – Shorter service, same music, lower volume
- Sunday, 9:15 am – Big crowd, high-energy worship moving soon to a “new” time that’s actually back to the same old time
- Sunday, 11:00 am – Big crowd, same high-energy worship at the same time
- Sunday, 5:00 pm – Relaxed service with plenty of room, acoustic music, and (starting Sept. 7) weekly communion

Life After Death
Because of Jesus, we have been given the assurance of everlasting life—that we will be able to spend eternity in heaven. While that is an incredible promise, a lot of us have questions. Join us this September as we dive into some of the most common and poignant questions about “Life After Death.”

For the Kids!
We’re kid- and family-focused at Hope! Kids are always welcome to be with you in the Worship Center. If you’d rather have them attend Hope’s version of Sunday school, bring them to HopeKids.
We also offer childcare for infants – age 3 in the Nursery at all services and for many classes and events. The nursery opens 15 minutes prior to the start of events and worship.
For children age 3 (by Sept. 15 and potty-trained) through grade 5, HopeKids takes place on Saturdays at 5:00 pm and Sundays at 9:15 & 11:00 am. Check in kids at the welcome desks located by the main entrance or by the Youth & Family entrance on the east side of the building.
Yearly Theme: 52 for ’25
Each week throughout 2025, we’ll take on one of the 52 most asked questions of faith. Weekly sermons, podcasts, classes, small group discussion guides, daily devotions, and more will help us discover God’s truth and his freedom-producing answers to our best questions!
