Build community and faith through learning, service, and the arts.
Children, teenagers, and the adults who care for them have a place at House of Hope. Explore ways to worship, learn, sing, serve, and grow in friendship.

Children explore faith through play and creativity, including the arts, STEM, games, and stories. Families put faith into action through service and community engagement.
For programming information or the family email list, contact Jimmy Hoke.
Youth explore faith, morality, justice, and service while building friendship and the skills for a meaningful life. Programs include Youth Group, service projects, retreats, and mission trips.
For upcoming youth events, contact Elsa Kendig.
