This Week at Hope Church
May 24, 2026, Day of Pentecost
“I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh.… And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Acts 2:17b,21
Dear Church Family,
Don't for get that we've taken a break from Sunday School, so the Worship Service now starts at 9:30 am and Fellowship Time will follow after for the rest of the summer.
We're celebrating the Day of Pentecost, fifty days after Easter, as the birthday of the Church, rejoicing in God’s Holy Spirit poured out on people from all nations. Also, in Matthew 5:38-48, Jesus teaches that since God forgives us in Christ’s sacrifice, we must love our enemies with God’s radical grace.
You won't want to miss it!
Ever yours ‘til glory dawn,
Pastor James
