Our Vision: What do we hope to accomplish?
We want compassionate service to become a way of life for everyone at Hope Chapel. We want to bring about social renewal and justice in our communities by re-connecting the disenfranchised, defending the weak, helping the poor, caring for the downtrodden and restoring the beauty of our city.
Our Motivation
We believe that the gospel message compels us to compassionate service. We want to be a community that immerses our hearts and minds in the gospel of grace trusting that it is God’s grace that sets us free to love and care for others.
Our Plan
Create Awareness
In a world where it is easy to look past the pain and brokenness all around us, we want to look toward it. We want to clearly communicate the needs of the people around us so that we might enter into it.
Establish Partnerships
Instead of partnering with many social service providers and agencies, we want to develop deep relationships with two or three social service providers. It is our desire to come alongside these organizations and agencies to serve with them and together bring about renewal in our communities.
Provide Opportunities
We will provide quarterly church-wide service opportunities to partner with our social service organizations and agencies. Additionally, we will provide opportunities for our community groups to partner with these organizations once a month.
Provide Training
We will train our volunteers by preparing them to put compassion into action and by helping them evaluate their experiences.
