Our Ministries

Educating. Equipping. Empowering.

We we believe that ministry defines the essence of who we are. That's why we place a heavy emphasis on our ministires. We believe that we exist not for ourselves, but as an extension of God; we are now the physical presence of Jesus Christ in the world.

We define ourselves faithful service to the needs of humanity.  Educating, equipping, and empowering are the three ministry imperatives that drive all of our activity. It is our prayer that every member of New Hope is a working member.
