What Is New Hope?
It's a group of people who care.
We're like the church when it first began - families living and worshipping together. If you're at New Hope, your kids are our kids. Your joys are our joys, and your sorrows are our sorrows.
We're so serious about making sure we keep the love growing between us that we established a group of men whose sole responsibility is to care for the people of our congregation. They are called deacons. If you look up what they are supposed to have been doing in your New Testament, you'll see that our deacons do just that. They do not rule. They do not vote. They hold no administrative role. What they do, and they do an incredible job of it - is they love people. If you'd like to look at our deacon handbook, it's right here . You can download it and read how we worked to set up a biblical body of deacons.
