Written By Lutheran Church of Hope

Looking Ahead!

Before we gather for our very first Sunday of worship in our new space, join us for an Open House at BUMC on Saturday, 6/6 from 2–4pm! Stop by to explore the building, find parking, and learn where to enter before Sunday morning.
Join us at 3:15pm in the Chapel of the Crosses for a Short Prayer Service of Journey and then we will process to BUMC arriving just prior to worship at 4pm. Folks can either park their cars at BUMC and walk over to LCHope prior, or park at LCHope and walk back after worship.
Below you’ll find two maps — one showing where to park and the other showing where to enter. These will be the designated parking and entrance locations while we worship at BUMC.
Broomfield United Methodist Church: 545 W Tenth Ave Broomfield, CO 80020 United States

Something to look forward to…

PScott will kick off a brand-new homily series as we begin worshiping at BUMC. You won’t want to miss it!

The Liturgy of Resurrection for Virginia Louise Hecht will be on Friday, June 5th at 3pm in the Chapel of the Crosses with Dessert/Coffee/Tea to follow in the Fellowship Hall.

If you’d like to help with setup, cleanup, and/or desserts, please fill out the form!

To help ensure clear and consistent communication, all announcements, event information, and promotional requests must be submitted to kelly@lchope.org by Monday at 9PM

DEADLINE: Monday at 9:00 PM

Definition of Lutheran Church of Hope; Grace, Faith, Love, Community, Giving, Caring, Friendship, Believing. Will this change that we all will experience be different, yes; will it involve alterations, yes; will there be transformation, yes; will we stop being Lutheran Church of Hope, No. Change is never easy but we, as a congregation, as a community, we got this and what will never change is the fact that we are a community, reaching out to serve one another and those in need. As Lutheran Church of Hope navigates an important period of transition, please know that you are not alone. We are here to support one another in every way we can. Service hours will be later, we’re here to help, such as providing rides to those uncomfortable driving at night or assisting with online access to LCHope, YouTube, and other digital resources.

Reaching Out will continue to reach out but in a different way, here’s how. But first and foremost a BIG THANK YOU to Everyone who continues to give so generously—whether through food donations, school supplies, Christmas gifts, winter accessories, books, stuffed animals, desserts, contributions to Anchor House, clothing, toiletries, and our monthly diaper and wipe drive and monetary, THANK YOU!

Starting in June at LCH east side door we’ll have the yellow collection containers located outside Monday through Friday, from 10 AM to 3 PM during office hours and available for all mission donations. Once a month, we’ll collect Diapers and Wipes for F.I.S.H. at the Methodist Church in the parking lot, available before and after service; look for open trunks and posted signs. Monetary gifts may be made using Servant Keeper, all proceeds go directly to the designated charity either as a monetary gift or items for the donated mission.
