Partnership
Hope Church Ministry Partners
What is Church Partnership?
The Bible says, “…for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now.”
Philippians 1:5
We all have the same things to invest in the church as the Holy Spirit leads each of us:
Time
Talents
Treasures
Testimony
Hope Church Partners in Ministry make three decisions:
Entrusting your life to Jesus Christ (salvation).
Agreeing with the Hope Church Statement of Beliefs.
Consider Hope Church to be your family of faith.
How is partnership different than membership?
When we think of memberships we might think of a gym, a country club, or Costco. These are providers of goods or services to consumers. The Church of Jesus Christ is different. Rather than being a place for consumers to get goods and services, a church family is a faith community that worships, prays, and serves together in the mission of Christ.
Hope Church Partnership agreement
Our Partnership with Christ and with one another as Hope Church will be lived out together through:
Worshiping Together - We will regularly gather together for time in worship and the Word.
Serving Together - Meeting needs or healing hurts together to be living proof of a loving God to a watching world.
Providing Together - Giving of our tithes and offerings to the Lord, through Hope Church (amounts are always decided personally, in obedience to the Holy Spirit’s leading).
