GoodHope is more than a church, we are a family. We want you to feel like part of our family from the start. Here's some of what to expect when you visit. Our dress code is comfortable and casual. Dress to your comfort level.
All families have to take time to spend together! Sunday mornings are a time to connect with each other. We offer opportunities for all ages from Babies to Senior Adults at 9 a.m in Sunday School classes throughout our campus. There is also a nursery, multiple children’s classes, and teen classes offered during this time.
Our only Sunday service is at 10am in our Worship Life Center. Our praise band leads us in worship and our pastor preaches a relevant, applicable message that will encourage your walk with Jesus. At GoodHope we like to use visual illustrations, video clips, and interactive media to drive home the message each week. We tend to not be so formal in our times together, so feel free to express yourself in worship or link up with someone to pray. Typically, services end between 11:15 and 11:30 a.m.
Nursery and childcare are provided during the worship service for children up to the 5th Grade.
Blue Jeans?Come casual and comfortable. When you visit GoodHope you'll see that it's a "come as you are" atmosphere. There's no pretense. It's about you being you. We want you here to experience God. We say, come in what you like. Come casual and comfortable or dressed to the hilt, but come with a heart that is open. The environment is friendly, casual, and upbeat. Most people wear blue jeans, or khakis...even shorts during the summer! God looks at the heart, not your style, and so do we. |
The Music?Come worship with us. We know that music is your heart language. Worship is our way of engaging our hearts to declare the great news of God and what He has done. Our music is modern in style and quality, drawing from contemporary worship and rearrangements of traditional standards. Expect it to be a bit louder, but mostly expect to see people engaged in authentic worship of God. |
Fresh, Alive, Maybe?We welcome everyone! GoodHope has a rich history in the Starr/Iva Community. We have been in existence for over 75 years and the future possibilities are limitless. Our prayer is that no matter where you are on your journey you'll feel right at home here...a community of faith, hope, and love. Welcome Home! |
