A new member class is appropriate for those new to the Lutheran faith, those who have no church background, and those who wish to join through the affirmation of faith. In this time together, we will discover what this congregation is all about as we introduce you to all things Hope Lutheran.

If you have been coming to our worship service and/or other events in our congregation and wish to become a member of the congregation, please speak with Pr. Krister or Pr. Amy.

St. Francis of Assis was a lover of animals as so many of us are, so in honor of his feast day (October 4th), and the beloved pets in our lives, we have planned a Blessing of the Pets for Sunday, October 5th after worship services. Please bring your pet in the car, or on a leash or in a carrier, to the Portico area for a blessing and a treat. If you are unable to bring your pet to Hope, feel free to bring a photo or stop for a blessing to take home & give to your special furry, feathery, or scaled friend! 

Join us as we kick-off the first of our Women’s Ministry gatherings and events with Women's Wine Night at Whole Hearted Winery! We want to provide opportunities that encourage connection, spiritual growth, and fellowship among women of all ages and stages of life, through meaningful conversation, supporting one another, and enjoying time together. On 10/9, Pastor Amy will share some insight about food and drink in the bible, but most importantly, we'll be together! And we'll be supporting a generous local business (WH supports the community with $1 dollar from every bottle purchased--find out more at winethatgives.com). Please register here so we know you'll be joining us, and we can save you a seat!

Beginning in November, an 8-week study of The Chosen, Season 1 will be offered for youth and families on Sundays after the 10:30 worship service (11:45am-1:00pm). We’ll grab something to eat, watch the show, and then discuss. Put it on your calendar and plan to join us when you are able. 

The Alternative Christmas Fair is a bazaar that offers an alternative to traditional shopping. At Hope’s Alternative Christmas Fair, all the vendors are charities, and 100% of the proceeds benefit that charity. Shoppers have the opportunity to browse the goods and services of many charities under one roof, knowing that all purchases directly benefit others in need! Shop the Alternative Christmas Fair November 8th from 10am to 2pm. Admission is only $1!

Registration is open! Students in 6th-12th grade are invited to experience the ultimate winter adventure at SpringHill Camps’ Winter Teen Retreat!

SpringHill teen retreats include large group sessions, a live band, and a featured speaker. Teens also spend the weekend engaging in fun activities like snow tubing, ice skating, a ropes course, laser tag, paintball, and swimming in an indoor heated pool.

The cost for each student is $199. SpringHill includes all the programming, housing, meals, and fun into one price so our youth will have the time and space to connect and discuss biblical truths that can transform their lives!

Sign up soon! We have several spots reserved already, and can add more as needed, but the retreats do fill up. We will arrange transportation and adult leaders at a later time. If you have any questions, please talk with Pastor Amy.
