Easter Everywhere!
Easter 2012
On April 8, we will begin with an sunrise service with communion at 7am out front.  We will continue with additional services at 8:30am, 10am, and 11:30am. Plan to arrive early so that you can use the parking shuttle at the PFG Lot in West Creek.  We will have extra worship space for Easter Sunday and encourage everyone to invite friends and neighbors to worship with you at HOPE on this day of celebration!

"His grave was among the wicked, his tomb with evildoers, though he had done no violence, and had spoken nothing false. But the LORD wanted to crush him and to make him suffer. If his life is offered as restitution, he will see his offspring;  he will enjoy long life. The LORD's plans will come to fruition through him."
                          Isaiah 53:9-10 Common English Bible
Good Friday at Hope     
Good Friday
On Friday night April 6th our worship auditorium will be open for prayer, reflection, and communion from 7:00-11:00 pm.   Music, Visuals, Communion, and other elements will seek to guide you in the meaning of Good Friday and the depth of the crucifixion.  This is not a worship service, rather it is a self-directed time for prayer and reflection.  Please feel free to come any time between 7 and 11 pm.
Family Easter Services

Childcare will be provided for children ages 5 and under at the 8:30, 10:00 and 11:30 services. The Zone, Hope's ministry for K-5th grade, will not meet on Easter. Enjoy  Easter worship with your family!

We invite you to gather your family together and watch Pete Bowell and Andy Berry share the Easter message in a meaningful video for both parents and children to enjoy together.

The link to our video will be released Thursday, April 5th at 6:23pm on our Facebook page or use the quick link at the left to our Collide blog.  This video can help you begin a conversation with your children about the true meaning of Easter.
