The Memorial Garden in the Garth provides a space for House of Hope members to remember loved ones whose cremated remains have been interred there. It is a sacred place for contemplation and a connection between generations.
To inquire about reserving a space, contact Rev. James D. Cochrane or call (651) 223-7553.
Baptism welcomes people into the community of faith. House of Hope celebrates baptisms of infants and children as parents promise to nurture them in Christian faith, as well as baptisms of adults who profess their faith.
To ask about a baptism, preparation for families, or arranging a date, contact Jimmy Hoke, Director of Children and Family Ministry, or call (651) 223-7547.
Church facilities primarily support church-sponsored events related to the congregation’s life and mission. Space may also be available to other nonprofit organizations for educational or benevolent purposes or community benefit, when it does not interfere with church programs.
