WE WELCOME YOU TO OUR WORSHIP SERVICE this morning at Hope Church. The preaching today will be the second message in a series based on Matthew chapter 18. In today's text, Jesus says, "Woe to the world for temptations to sin." (Matthew 18:7)
AFTER CHURCH TODAY, the pastor will meet with those who are considering church membership. This will be an overview of Hope Church's beliefs and practices, with an opportunity to apply for church membership. Please join us at 12:30 pm in the Chapel Room.
