We hope you enjoy your visit to our website and that you feel free to visit us in person, too!
 Either way, we offer you a heartfelt welcome.
The welcome we extend doesn't start with us. We are not just a welcoming church, but a church of our welcoming God.
It isn't about us. It's about God.
And God welcomes you – not just to this website or to our building - but to a life that is not lived alone. Welcome!

Sunday, May 25
The Med City Marathon runners (including a few People of Hope-ers) pass right by People of Hope on their route through town. We thought it would be fun to cheer them on (before, during, and after services!) Families of runners have been invited to use our parking lot and join POHers as we worship and cheer.
Come for the 8:30 a.m. worship service (outdoors on the west side of the Mission Center) and stay for the fellowship, food, cheering, music, and FUN! Bring your blanket or lawn chairs, noise makers, whistles, and cheering voices as we worship and praise God outdoors. (Service outdoor, weather permitting; the runners will run regardless of rain.)
Wear "POH Spirit Wear" (t-shirts, sweatshirts), or wear something purple. We want the runners to see us and remember the special spirit of People of Hope.

Channel One
We've set aside a special giving emphasis for each month -- when we did that, we said that every Sunday would be Channel One Sunday. Now, in addition, we've decided to make the month of May "Channel One Month." The food needs for our community are at such a crisis, we wanted to make an even bigger effort to really concentrate and pray and give to the poorest of the poor in our community. Bring food every Sunday and always feel free to write out an extra check to POH, earmarked "Channel One." Cash donations can also be placed in the kiosk marked in the Gathering Area.
Saturday, May 10th is National "Stamp Out Hunger" Day

What's Happening This Month |
|
|
|
As a church of the welcoming God, our congregation, centered on the teachings and example of Jesus Christ, is committed to removing all barriers which might prevent us from fulfilling our mission as a loving community. To that end, we continually weigh ourselves against God's welcoming standards and strive to welcome all – including, but not limited to – people of every race, nationality, age, political affiliation, marital status, gender identity, economic or social status, sexual orientation, mental and physical abilities . . .
