"This life therefore is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness, not health, but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it..."
                                                      Martin Luther          

 

Times are Changing...

What New in the Zone?

Computerized Check-in! On Jan 15 we will begin using a computerized check-in system in the Zone, our children's ministry for K-5th grade. This will provide a more efficient check-in and check-out process for our families. Please be patient as we transition to this new process.
Could this be You?

The Zone, our K-5th grade children's program, is looking for videographers and graphic designers to join our creative team. A heart for children and experience with Final Cut Pro, are a plus. Interested? Email Lisa Marshall at lmarshall@hopecentral.com.

Each quarter the pastors recommend a book for people to read. In Jesus Calling by Sarah Young, readers are invited to experience the peace and presence of Christ in their daily lives.

Alpha Course

   

Alpha is a DVD series by Nicky Gumbel, a former atheist and barrister,  who followed a calling to become an Anglican priest. This course is designed to help you learn more about the Christian faith and begin, (or deepen) a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This course will be hosted by Hopers, Katherine and Hunter Applewhite. Details...
