New?
We are so delighted that you chose to visit our online home. We consider Center of Hope to be “More than a Church; It’s a Family”. If you are new to Center of Hope or are considering joining us for a service, you may have questions as to what to expect. Expect a miracle! During every worship service we believe for the Spirit of God to appear and touch the lives of God’s people.
We do have a format that includes singing and preaching, receiving an offering (money given by members) and giving people the opportunity to confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. People lift their hands, and they may even shout a healthy “amen” during the message. At times we pray together as a congregation or have people come forward to receive prayer. At Center of Hope you will experience practical, biblical teaching, the supernatural power of God, and an atmosphere of freedom!
We ask that you take a look at the various pages of this website for additional information about what we have to offer and how you can get further connected with us. If there is anything that we at Center of Hope can do to assist you, please do not hesitate to let us know.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Your “Sunday Best” doesn’t have to be a suit and tie or dress! Jeans, sneakers, heels, sport coats, boots, button downs, skirts, t-shirts, casual, comfortable, cool – are all acceptable. Come as you are… we do.
Does Center of Hope believe I can be forgiven for my bad deeds, no matter what?
Yes. All have sinned and come short of the Glory of God, but God so loved the world that He gave His only son, that anyone who believes in Him should live eternally.
Does Center of Hope believe God creates devastation, kills people and brings hardship into the lives of people for His divine purposes?
NO! The Word of God teaches us clearly in the Bible that every good and perfect gift comes from God. It is Satan (a dark angel cast from heaven) who steals, kills and destroys. God sent His son, Jesus Christ to bring abundant life to all of us. We like to explain it this way: “draw a line down the middle of your life, if it is good- it is God, if it is bad- it is not God!”
