Ministries

Children Ministries

We seek to engage children with Biblical truth in age appropriate, fun, and creative ways. Our children's ministry is broken into two sections, Playground (birth-5 years old) and Treehouse (1st-5th grade)
Playground

Playground is where we love and care for our newborns through pre-K children. Register your little ones at our sign-in table. If you have a baby or toddler, take him right into the nursery. If you have a preschooler, she will go into the worship service with you and will be dismissed during the break along with the other children. The preschoolers go to their own class for playtime, a lesson, a snack, and a craft.

Treehouse


"Our K-5th Grade students utilize The Gospel Project to complete a full Bible survey, from Genesis through Revelation. In both large group and small group time, students are pointed to the main focus of the Gospel, Jesus. Treehouse begins after family worship, and concludes at the end of service."

 

Youth Ministry

Youth - Who / When

Beginning Wednesday, May 9th @ 6-7:30pm, Hope Church Youth (6-12th grade students) will meet on Wednesday instead of Sundays during the summer. This will give the students and staff another time during the week to connect. The evening will include fun, worship, & teaching. They will be looking at the Gospel of John. Please encourage your students to be there and invite friends.

Additional Activities

Throughout the year, the students will participate in camps (winter & summer), local youth gatherings, and other events. Visitors are always welcome.

Basic Beliefs

When you start attending the youth group, you will be studying the book "Christian Beliefs" by Wayne Grudem. In addition to a reading assignment each week, each student will be given a workbook to complete.

Weekly

Women's Fall Bible Study


Women’s Bible Study started the first Wednesday of February, but there is still time to join. They meet Wednesdays from 9:30-11:30.  The cost is $15 and includes the book It’s Not Supposed to Be This Way, by Lysa Terkeurst.  If you would like to sign up or you have questions, see Melissa or Rochelle.







New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst unveils her heart amid shattering circumstances and shows readers how to live assured when life doesn't turn out like they expected.

What do you do when God’s timing seems questionable, His lack of intervention hurtful, and His promises doubtful?

Life often looks so very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a moment, but others shatter us completely. We feel disappointed and disillusioned, and we quietly start to wonder about the reality of God’s goodness.

Lysa TerKeurst understands this deeply. But she's also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Lysa invites us into her own journey of faith and, with grit, vulnerability, and honest humor, helps us to:

  • Stop being pulled into the anxiety of disappointment by discovering how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations.
  • Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes.
  • Discover the secret of being steadfast and not panicking when God actually does give us more than we can handle.
  • Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us.
  • Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God's truth.


Monthly
The Women's Ministry also enjoys a monthly get together. Check the church calendar for the next event. Come join us for fun and fellowship.

Yearly
The Women's Ministry also enjoys an annual fall retreat. Come join us for fun and fellowship.



This Month's Women's Events

Men's Ministry

We desire to affirm and hold accountable men as servant leaders within their families, their workplaces, and with other relationships.  This affirmation and accountability will lay the foundation from which we intend to build.  We look to Christian men to do their jobs and hold the line in the places and situations they are in today.  We are not looking for supermen but men of honor and integrity as they accomplish small and routine things that are typically taken for granted.

Weekly
All men are encouraged to join the "Men of Hope" for lunch every Wednesday from 11:30-1:00. The Adtran Cafe (901 Explorer Blvd, Huntsville, AL) is open to everyone and has different options available. Also, feel free to brown bag it. Hope to see you there.

Monthly
Come join the "Men of Hope" for a morning meal from 08:00-10:00 a.m. on the second Saturday of every month. These regular monthly meetings will consist of breakfast (which will surely include bacon with a side of bacon, and maybe some eggs -- $5 donation requested), time of prayer, occasional worship through song, and the presentation of resource (speaker, video/discussion, book discussion, etc).  Please contact Derek Fleischmann or Kevin Mays if you have any questions or want to help with the cooking.

Guys: Are you a leader?


At the retreat, we were challenged to think of ourselves as leaders. How do we develop that? Where should we grow? What character qualities should we pursue? Our next unit in Men's Ministry will focus on these questions. We will be working through the book "Finding Faithful Elders and Deacons" by by Thabiti M. Anyabwile. I believe every man can benefit from this, even if you think you could never be a church leader! Get a copy or let us know you are interested and we will order some. I'm looking forward to applying more of what we heard. We will start at the next Men's Breakfast.





Quarterly
Once a quarter, in lieu of the monthly meeting, we will do an activity. That activity will be on that 2nd Saturday if possible and will be some sort of recreational activity.

Community Groups




When we come into the family of God we are not just isolated individuals but members of a community. We believe that beyond just "attending" a church that we must be linked in vital relationship where we can worship, study, and "experience life" together.

Proverbs 27:17

At Hope we have chosen to do this through community groups that meet throughout the week in various locations and different times. Below you will find a map marking the general area in which various groups meet. If you click on the "tacks" you can find more information about the meeting and a contact person.
