“Worship the Lord with gladness; come into his presence with singing.  Know that the Lord is God. It is he that made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, bless his name.”

– Psalm 100:2-4

Worship Listening Sessions

In addition to the worship survey that was recently sent out and posted here, the Worship Task Force team is also interested in engaging at another level with Hope members and friends by holding Listening Sessions to brainstorm new approaches and probe survey findings.  Our goal continues to be about finding meaningful ways to engage our community in worship, as we strive to be a place that welcomes all people and helps them grow as followers of Jesus.

Are you open to some live discussion about what makes worship meaningful for you?  About how our worship life can continue to grow?  About how we can engage members of our community without a church home in worship with us?

Join one of our small group discussions, occurring over the next 2 weeks:

Questions?  Contact the church office or a Worship Task Force team member.

Worship Survey Invitation

Greetings members and friends of Hope – 

At Hope Lutheran Church, we aspire to be a safe community of faith that welcomes and reaches out to people of all ages, cultures, economic statuses, races, sexual orientations, gender identities, and life experiences treating each as we wish to be treated, loving each other and God in the way of Jesus. In short, we are a community trying to follow Jesus.

The Church has changed over the last year, returning from the pandemic while welcoming a new Senior Pastor. With change comes opportunity. In this vein, a task force of Hope members was assembled to examine how the church worships. We aim to develop a worship structure consistent with the Church’s mission as a community for all that feeds the souls of anyone whom we may welcome through our doors and helps us grow as followers of Christ.

The task force believes hearing from the community is central to our work. This survey is the first opportunity to share your thoughts about worshipping at Hope, and we thank you for lending your voice.  We also invite you to share this with friends or anyone else you think might be interested in offering their input.  If there are differences of experience or preference within your family, please feel free to fill out more  than one survey per family.  If you require an accommodation in order to complete the survey please contact the church office.  Please complete the survey on or before May 14.

We anticipate that the survey will take you no more than 5-7 minutes to complete ---- and your input allows us to plan to meet your worship interests and desires. 

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact any of the Worship Task Force members!
