Important Notes for the Week!

Due to ongoing construction, the door access codes are no longer active. If you need access to the building, please contact Greg Lowe at greg@lchope.org to make arrangements.
LCHope is now in their new fiscal year 2026/2027! General Fund 25/26 and Building Hope for the Future Fund have now been deactivated. If you need a reminder of the amounts pledged to the 26/27 General Fund OR to the Passing on the Faith - Building Pledge Fund, email Beth at finsec@lchope.org. Make sure your recurring giving has the correct dollar amount and the correct fund name.

Reaching Out Changes

Definition of Change; it refers to the act, process, or result of making or becoming different, involving alteration, transformation.

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.

Starting in June at LCHope 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.
