Loving. Inclusive. Affirming. 

We are a fun and imperfect community of Christ-followers, committed to grow deeper with God and  others and reach wider to serve and share God's love with the world. What's more, we look a lot like the universal Church: a multi-ethnic family of all ages, affirming the worth of every human being.

Launched in 2012 as part of 1001 New Worshiping Communities of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), we aim to bring our unique blend of Reformed understanding and passion for Jesus Christ to this emerging community.

Hope is loving, inclusive and affirming -- welcoming people of every race, gender, orientation, age, physical and mental ability, national origin, economic station and political perspective to full participation in the life of our community. All of us are made in the image of God – and each of us is a work in progress.

We believe every Christ-follower is a minister -- and that we live all of our lives unto God.

In a nutshell, here are our priorities:

• God before All
• Kingdom before Congregation
• People before Property
• Love before Doctrinal Precision

Though the list isn’t comprehensive – and frankly, it’s always percolating – we think these convey our posture when we’re at our best.

Hope will conduct its 2nd annual Golf Scramble and Silent Auction for Hope Scholars on Saturday 5/1/21 at Eagle Creek Country Club. In 2020 -- amid a pandemic! -- the tournament netted more than $4,000 for college scholarships. These are awarded to in-house applicants, a senior at Lake Nona High, and a senior at Oak Ridge High -- an at-risk Orlando school with which Hope shares a pre-launch connection.

Hope surpassed our 2020 Advent Conspiracy Project goal to donate 10,000 meals to  neighbors through Feeding Children Everywhere's Full Cart Fresh program. Full Cart Fresh delivers boxes of shelf-stable food + fruits and vegetables straight to the door of Central Floridians -- a bonus during the pandemic. A gift of $40 provides 125 meals. As of 12/31, we funded 11,144 meals -- with funds still arriving in the first 10 days of 2021. Well done!!
