Faith Partners

HOUSE OF HOPE FAITH PARTNERS is a new ministry designed expressly for our church members by volunteers and pastoral staff. Our ministry was created in 2004, based on the positive results of a congregation-wide survey. Our program is part of a national effort underway in more than 100 places of worship, led by The Rush Center of The Johnson Institute (www.rushcenter.org)

Our Mission Statement

The House of Hope Faith Partners Ministry will serve the needs of our congregation, and the broader community, by addressing addiction in our midst. We will provide educational programs, resource information, outreach and support to people affected by addiction.

Addiction is a destructive relationship with a substance, activity or person.

Recovery is a life-long journey and not a quick fix, requiring – with God’s help – a strong personal commitment and daily effort.
