Living What We Believe.

Communities of Hope

We believe doing life together is what we're made for.

God has called us together as people who cultivate communities where the hope of Jesus is the hope of every person. Together, we are being trained and sent to live out the Good News of Jesus that is available to everyone. We are learning to have our lives continually shaped by the Spirit of Jesus so that we can be accepted as we are and changed to look more and more like Jesus. We believe that multiplying these kinds of stories will transform this place that we love.
