Looking ahead . . .

With 2010 behind us and 2011 ahead, we want to encourage you as you look toward this year and exhort you to think strategically about 2011.

Let’s begin by remembering that our God is sovereign, awesome and limitless! 2010 has been a difficult economic year for many of us. Further, there remain many unknowns as we attempt to peer into 2011. This is always true, as even life itself is uncertain, but our God doesn’t change and He isn’t surprised or limited by economic circumstances. He knew precisely that things would be as they are when He chose to call us in our current places, roles, and at this very time, as His Ambassadors! Remember . . . He will always provide all we need to do all He wants, so be of good cheer! Press on! If you’re in Christ, you’re in good hands!

Christmas Fellowship

Last Sunday we hosted "Hopewell's Christmas Celebration".

What a glorious time it was from the very beginning to the end. Our choir, under the direction of Dona Prophitt, blessed us with songs from a beautiful cantata entitled "Behold Emmanuel".

In the evening we enjoyed food & fellowship together in our Outreach Center.
Being blessed with Bro. Joey & Sis. Lisa, Christa, Catarina, and Micah
as our Pastorate family, we blessed them with a love offering to show
them how much we truly appreciate them.


Merry Christmas from all of us to all of you!
