Join us for the Traditional Service at Hope

From traditional Lutheran liturgy to liturgical colors on the altar and robe-wearing pastors, Hope’s Traditional Service includes classic organ-led hymns, special choir, orchestra and brass ensembles, and weekly Holy Communion.

Sundays, 9:00 am
Hope West Des Moines Chapel

Set in Hope’s Chapel, the service meets every Sunday at 9:00 am and is livestreamed on YouTube. Services begin with instrumental or vocal musical ensembles to help worshipers experience the truth and love of Jesus Christ, followed by traditional liturgy from “the green book” – the Lutheran Book of Worship – followed by the Gospel reading, a live-preached sermon, weekly communion and classic hymns. Worshipers are invited to enjoy breakfast after the service in The Bridge.

The Sermon on the Mount

The Sermon on the Mount is the longest and most well-known of the teachings that Jesus delivers in the Gospels. In it, Jesus unveils the beautiful Kingdom that Jesus came to usher into the world. He teaches (among other things) about those whom God blesses, the need for God’s law and grace, the gift of generosity, and how to deal with worry. Don’t miss this power-packed four-week series as we dive into this powerful teaching.
