get to know us more

The beginning of our church was a home Bible study with three families and Pastor Paul Radford in 1969. In October of 1969, the present 5 ½ acre site, plus the former parsonage, as well as a second parsonage were available as a package deal for $72,500. God provided the financial support; and, in January 4, 1970, Park Grove Alliance Church had its first public worship service. In June of 1973, the lower level of our current building was completed; and, in 1986, we finished the upper level. We changed our name to Hope Community Church in 1996.

our vision
We believe our Sunday worship services need to be designed to connect people to God on an intimate level. We place a high priority on biblical teaching, engaging worship, and a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
|
We also believe that people need to be connected with others -- no one should stand alone. We offer small groups designed to foster healthy biblical relationships with other people in a safe and caring environment.
|
We believe every follower of Christ should do ministry. Connecting to ministry is vital for our spiritual growth, and we have the honor of impacting others. We offer ministry teams so people can serve alongside others.
|
Finally, we believe that God commands believers to connect to the world. We encourage and equip people to reach out to others by investing in their lives and inviting them to Christ and the church.
