Our Mission :

Our mission in New Hope in Christ Church is to serve the community with the love of Christ. As Pastor, my desire is to allow people to come into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to bring them into an atmosphere of liberty and freedom in the Lord.I desire also to aid them as the Holy Spirit of God leads them in their walk with God.I believe it is very important to be grounded in sound Biblical teaching to successfully find God's will for your life.Our Sunday School starts at 9:30 a.m. At 10:15 we take a break for fellowship and to grab a cup of coffee.The Worship Service starts at 10:30 a.m.We have a junior choir and youth group. I have a burden to reach young people for Christ and to allow them to exercise their gifts as well.Our ladies meet every fourth Monday of the month and our youth group meets every second and fourth Tuesday of the month.The ladies meet for Bible study, fellowship, and to help plan events.The youth plan events and do various activities.On Wednesdays we meet at 7 p.m. for prayer, Bible teaching, and lifting up the Lord in song and praise.Upstairs we have a kid's club for the youth. I sincerely hope you will visit and allow us to minister to you and provide opportunity for you to use your God given gifts.God bless you,Pastor Frank,my wife Deb, and our children Rebekah, Elisabeth, and Daniel.Finally many people ask me a question about the name of our church: What does Maranatha mean? It is actually found in God's Word in I Corinthians 1:22. It is an Aramaic word (marana) which means "Our Lord Comes!"
