Core Values of Hope Fellowship Church

We deeply value:

1. Bible-centered preaching/teaching. The Bible is the Word of God, and therefore, we use it as the basis for what we believe and how we live.
2. A welcoming and accepting atmosphere. We are excited to have visitors attend our services and have a desire for more and more people of our community to become part of our church family.
3. Praise and worship. We want people to meet God face-to-face at our services, to be molded and shaped by that meeting, and to express their joy, wonder and thanks to Him.
4. Prayer. In every aspect of personal life and ministry of the church, we want to seek God’s direction, will and power.
5. Godly servant leadership. We expect leaders of Christ’s church to reflect the life of Christ and to serve others just as He served.
6. A well-mobilized lay ministry. We want to help every believer develop and use their abilities and gifts so that we can fulfill God’s intention and effectively minister as the body of Christ.
7. Committed Christians. We seek to help every person keep growing spiritually and develop into healthy, mature followers of Christ.
8. Christian Education. We provided learning opportunities for people of all ages so that they may learn to understand the Bible and the Christian faith.
9. Community. We have been called by God to express love, genuine caring, encouragement and support to each other in the context of a family beyond the family.
10. Evangelism. We have the good news of Jesus Christ and must share it with lost people so that they can receive His forgiveness and eternal life.
11. Strong families. We provide ministries that encourage healthy relationships and provide support for individual families.
12. Financial responsibility. We are accountable to God and the church family for the use of every gift received and openly report all of our financial activities.
