Serve the City
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 cultivating beauty in our city.
We are committed to partnering with local organizations to work for social renewal. Through Project Hope, we serve as community groups monthly. In 2016, we began a Saturday morning food distribution program in partnership with Out of the Garden Project. Currently all of our community groups rotate to facilitate this, with each group serving once per month.
If you are not in a community group and would like to be involved, we would love for you to join us any Saturday. Contact Michael Van Patter for more info.
We also partner with Hope Academy, spending one Saturday morning each month helping with various projects around their campus.
