Welcome to Hope Community Fellowship! We are an Advent Christian Fellowship and a praying church who wants to serve our community and tell people of the hope found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We welcome all to come and worship with us. Please contact us with any needs or prayer requests.
Mission Statement: Bringing the hope of the Gospel to the local community by loving, serving, and proclaiming Christ.
Vision Statement:
We believe God intended for His people to have a fulfilling relationship with Him and live lives of joy, fullness, and peace through Jesus’s transforming power. We envision a body of Christ that is a beacon of hope, shining the light of Christ’s death and resurrection as the source of that living hope into our local community.
Loving our community – God’s plan for His church is to be a place of loving fellowship. Jesus demonstrated His love by coming to us, serving us, and providing us with an example of how we should love others.
We will be disciples of Christ who are consistently growing in love for God and one another and who are encouraging one another to grow in Christian maturity through worship, study, and fellowship.
Like Jesus, we will reach out to our local community. We will exemplify His love by going, giving, praying, sharing, and serving, so that others may clearly see and understand the message of Jesus and be transformed by the Gospel and the Holy Spirit.
Serving – God is a Father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, and a refuge for the lonely. His son Jesus served those in need with loving humility. We as Christ’s church will follow His example.
Like Jesus, we will be a people of humility. We will use the unique gifts and talents God has given us in service to one another and the community to display God’s love and goodness and to glorify Christ, whom we strive to emulate.
Like Jesus, we will serve the hurting, lonely, and needy who lack support. We will surround them with loving friendship to help meet their needs, as well as offer them meaningful opportunities to join in Christ’s work, so that they may also experience the joy of giving and serving.
Proclaiming the Gospel – We believe that the Gospel is the Good News that offers hope even in desperate circumstances through the power of God, imparting salvation to all who believe. Jesus came to proclaim the kingdom of God in word and deed. He both instructed and empowered His disciples to do likewise.
Like Jesus, we will seek out ways to connect, converse, and pray with people so they too may discover the Good News found in the Gospel. We will be a church whose hope, love, and sacrificial service point directly toward the hope, love, and sacrifice we have received from our Lord Jesus Christ, so that all people may come to share in the fellowship the Church has with the Father and His Son.
We believe that as we abide in our Savior, He will make His will known to us, and we will bear fruit for His kingdom.
