Sunday Worship Services and all in-person meetings and gatherings of
New Hope Church have been cancelled until further notice
due to the COVD-19 virus.
We are trying to adapt to our rapidly changing situation and do our part to encourage, support, and pray for one another and for our world.
Virtual meetings, phone calls and porch conversations are still happening as we find creative ways to support each other from a distance during this time of social distancing.

May you God bless and keep you at this time.
Psalm 46: 1-7, 10-11
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.
Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”
The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Welcome!
New Hope Church is a community of people who care deeply for East Hamilton.
We are learning and growing in what it means to follow Jesus in our daily lives. We meet together on Sundays, and we also connect through the week in many ways to offer support, encouragement and friendship as we serve the Lord together in our city. We are trying to listen to where God is nudging and moving among us. And He really is moving among us!
Every Sunday, we gather as a community at The Perkins Centre to worship God through fellowship, music, service and studying the Bible. Coffee and other drinks are at the ready for 10:00 a.m. (and maybe even some treats if someone's feeling ambitious). People amble in, grab a drink, and spend some time catching up with each other and meeting new people. At around 10:30, we gather around tables for a time of singing, praying and reflecting on God's word, the Bible. This time of worship is led by various members of New Hope Church.
On some Sundays, we spend our time together worshiping by serving our community in some way. Usually this means we work on a project together that will benefit our neighbourhood or a community organization.
We have childcare available during these gathering times for children under 3. For children ages 4 and up, we have Sunday School during part of the service on most Sundays. We also have some intergenerational services (where all ages are welcome) and there is space for kids to colour or create amongst us.
Check out New Hope's Facebook group or the church calendar to find out what people are up for what is being planned for an upcoming Sunday. You can also talk to someone on the worship planning team to learn more.

This busy group is making "seed bombs" which will be used to plant native species in some of the parkland in Hamilton's watershed areas: just one of the many activities we might do together on a Sunday morning.
