"I think a lot of us need to forget about God's will for my life. God cares more about our response to His Spirit's leading today, in this moment, then about what we intend to do next year." Francis Chan in The Forgotten God

We Need Your Help
Do you sponsor a child through an organization like Compassion or World Vision? We are creating a display of the children that Hopers sponsor and would love copies of your photos, letters or drawings by your child. Please email any digital copies to Ryan Evans at t.ryanevans@gmail.com by May 27 or bring a hard copy by the Hope office.
