Where Can I Serve?
Jesus told us, his disciples, to make disciples of all nations. One of the most important values of New Hope Ministries is our mission to the world. It begins in our own Hillcrest community, and spreads overseas to every nation. New Hope Ministries members are involved in a variety of ministries from things as simple as attending to the needs of others through the Care Ministry, to reaching out with the Hands of Hope teams.
Mission Outreach
New Hope is thrilled to be part of the spread of God’s kingdom around the world. We are active in sending missionaries and supporting these missionaries with our money and with our prayers. We encourage all of our people to respond to God’s call for laborers, whether it means that they move to a foreign country or live and minister in our own community.
Music
God-honoring worship is something we strive for. Many church members get involved in our music. Some are vocalists. Others are involved in the media. These volunteers are an important part of the ministry of New Hope Ministries, using their talents and gifts to glorify God.
Ushers
The usher team at New Hope Ministries fills an important role. They are involved in directing attendees to their seats, ensuring the safety of the building during services, helping visitors, answering questions, providing direction, unlocking doors, locking doors, and generally ensuring that the service can proceed problem-free. The usher team is a servant-hearted group of men and women whose ministry is integral to church life.
Media & Technology
Using media to spread the gospel is a privilege of New Hope Ministries. In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes. We also maintain an active Facebook feed for additional church communication.
Marriage Counseling
Marriages can be difficult to maintain. Misunderstanding, confusion, resentment, and anger can flare up in any marriage. Several couples at New Hope Ministries serve other families as marriage counselors. Their role in listening, understanding, helping, and encouraging struggling couples has, by God’s grace, saved marriages, and repaired relationships. Couples have found fresh hope and new joy in a warm and fulfilling relationship with their spouse.
Prayer Warriors
Prayer cannot be overestimated. Prayer moves the hand of God. New Hope Ministries is a body of believers dependent upon prayer, and committed to God’s sovereignty. Jeannie Noles is in charge of these prayer filled stormtroopers. Throughout the week, volunteers to our Prayer Warriors team, pray for their pastor, a list of church members, any special requests, and missionary prayer needs. Each Wednesday, the church comes together for a special time of prayer and Bible study.
Children’s Church
In order to give our children the best Bible teaching possible, New Hope Ministries holds a children’s church service in conjunction with the main service. This special time gives kids more opportunity for interaction and learning in a context and manner that may be better suited to their age and learning levels. Our friendly children’s church volunteers have an endless stream of creativity–ranging from games, to object lessons.
