A Look Back at 2023
As we kicked off 2023, we set out to keep our eyes on Jesus. When our eyes are fixed on Jesus, we know we’ll be moved through life with joy, see the world in a different way, dream bigger, and stop thinking things are impossible. Let’s take a moment to celebrate God’s goodness and faithfulness together. We are so thankful for what He has done and are extremely expectant for transformation and what is to come in 2023.
We welcomed over 400 new guest!
Mount Hope Church is a community of people who love God and others, and it is our desire that every Sunday, we create an environment for everyone encounter God’s love and amazing grace. Thank you for being a part of helping new families feel welcomed and encouraged in our church.
We celebrated 116 baptisms!
In water baptism, you are identifying with Jesus’s death, burial, and resurrection. Going under the water signifies that your former life is now dead and buried. Rising out of the water signifies resurrection to a new, spiritual life empowered by the Holy Spirit, who raised Jesus from the dead. You now live your new life from the position of victory over sin and death.
We celebrated over 300 of salvations!
Through our two campuses, online services, young adults, youth, and childrens, we saw lives transformed as they chose to follow Christ. Thank you, Jesus!
