Vision for the future

information about our vision of what Hope will be in this community Hope Lutheran Church will be a community of well-equipped witnesses to the Lordship of Jesus Christ who gather for inspiring worship, in-depth study of the Word and embracing fellowship so that members return to their locale refreshed for service to their community. Hope Lutheran Church will be a focal point for congregation and community education, cultural events, welfare, and care. Hope Lutheran Church will be recognized within the area as a congregation that reaches beyond itself to touch the lives of the unbeliever and unchurched with the hand of Christ. Hope Lutheran Church will be "the Hub" which draws people together and sends them out. Hope has begun a capital campaign to raise funds to continue the “next phase” of campus expansion.

OUR GOALS:

1. Extend the ministries, witness, and outreach of our church.                                                

2. To provide facilities that meet the needs of our congregation and future members still to come, both now and in the future.

3. To seek God's guidance and direction - discovering the ways in which God wants to work through each of us.

THE PLAN:

We plan to begin phase II of our Master Plan: the construction of a Family Life Center.  The Center will be a 11,000+ square feet multi-purpose facility that will include a working kitchen and storage space.  It will be used for large congregational gatherings, wedding receptions, and large community functions.  It will have the flexibility to be congfigured as a gymnasium, a venue suitable for alternative worship, or a place to host music concerts. 

"Building Hope for the Future...the journey continues" hopes to raise enough funds for this project.  We are encouraging each person to prayerfully seek God's will in his or her own life, and inviting three-year pledges above and beyond regular giving to the church's annual spending plan.
