Hope Lutheran Church

Home

Welcome to our church

We all want a place to call home, to celebrate our blessings, to mend our brokenness, or just to feel part of a community. Hope Lutheran Church has that sense of belonging especially to families to keep them focused on fulfilling their lives the way God has intended. So many distractions and meaningless wants pull us from the peace and love of God.

What We Believe

We are a Lutheran congregation, which means that we believe in God, revealed to us as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Our lives are rooted in the good news of salvation that comes in the life, death and resurrection of the son, Jesus Christ. It is that good news that frees us from our self-centeredness and allows us to live for others, following Jesus.

Hope LC and COVID-19

Greetings

Today (Mar 13) we have received guidance from the Bishop's office concerning the coronavirus. Based on his recommendations, Hope Lutheran Church will be cancelling all services until March 29th.

We are in the process of trying to offer sermons online weekly. Bulletins will be sent out via email.

I do want to point out that we do not have any confirmed cases at Hope Lutheran Church. Out of an abundance of caution, Pastor Pamela will self-quarantine herself for two weeks as she has in the last couple of months traveled outside of the state. She will be available for phone calls.

I will be sending out updates as we find out more.

If you have any questions feel free to contact Pastor Pamela or Greg Whitney.

Lenten Soup Suppers

This is done out of caution for everyone's health. There doesn't have too be any signs or symptoms known for people to pass this virus on. Preparing and serving dinner seems to high of a risk to place on our congregation.

Thank you in advance for your understanding
