Wednesday Night Bible Study: Verse by Verse
Wednesday nights are growing nights! Our Wednesday night Bible study is in depth and yet open conversation. Lead by Pastor Kenin, it is a fantastic place and fit for every level of student...Bible novices to Bible scholars. Everyone will leave feeling challenged and inspired. Wednesdays at 6:30pm
Teen Ministry:
Our new Youth Leader intern, McKenna, is doing a wonderful job leading our teens in their own Bible Study. Our teens are comprised of 5 grade through 18. Our teens are also very involved with other ministries like Teen Mission Jasper County. More on that below.
Children's Ministry:
Sunday mornings Children's church begins after our musical worship time! Held in our beautiful children's area. A time of lessons and activities and games.
Wednesday nights is Hope 4 Kids:
Hope 4 Kids is our interactive Wednesday evening program for children ages preK through 5th grade. We gather in the sanctuary for a large group lesson for all ages, then break out into preK-2nd and 3rd-5th grade small groups in which we play games and have activities based on the lesson. We are currently using the KidzLife "Kids Like The King" curriculum.
​
Our Men:
Men's Breakfast is the first Saturday of each month. Men of all ages, from Hope and other ministries around town, get together, have a hearty breakfast and a time of worship. Each month a different speaker comes. The building is often filled with laughter and song.

Our Ladies
See our rotating schedule for busy ladies!
(17 & up) below
Ladies Pajama Club:
Women are busy!! Most women would love to have time to sit down and just talk with other women but finding time to get together is almost impossible. Add to that Indiana's chilly winters. So, we decided to start a late night club that women can attend after all their chores are done. We throw on our pjs, grab a warm drink and sit down in our own home and meet with others... online. There is lots of great discussions, laughter, and fun. We meet on Thursday night at 8pm, every other month.
On the opposite month, we have:
​
Ladies Day @ Aydas
Our ladies gather in the back room of Ayda's Mexican Restaurant for great food, talking and lots of laughter! A 'dutch treat' event that everyone greatly enjoys.
​
Winter- Fireside Chats
Summer- Patio Chats
Fireside Chats/Patio Chats are an opportunity for individuals to sit and chat with Cherie' &/or Pastor Kenin in their home or office to discuss anything: challenges, struggles or just to spend some time talking one on one with us. Need to talk? Sign up as your schedule permits.

Ministries & Outreaches
TEEN MISSION JASPER COUNTY
TEEN MISSION JASPER COUNTY was designed by teens for teens as a mission trip in their own home home and it began at Hope Community. It is put on by numerous Jasper County ministries every summer. Wheelchair ramps are built, yards are landscaped, houses are painted, along with numerous other assistance. This assistance is offered free of charge each year to the needy. In fact, the teens raise money all year to be able to offer it for free. Find out more at teenmissionjc.com
