A Word from Pastor Jill
Wow! Every year I am more and more humbled by the work I get to be a part of at Hope Church. Just like every year past, I am blown away by these numbers. Statistics aren't our goal at Hope, but they are a great way to see a bird's eye view of the work our community is doing. Because of YOU—your faith, your generosity, your dedication—our collective efforts are truly changing lives.
Attendance

Which is a 3.5% increase from 2018—and a 26% increase in the last six years!
