From our Pastor:

Hope United Parish is a geographical parish affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. Each member church shares the pastoral staff and resources to fulfill our mission.

Hope United Parish Mission Statement:

“To fulfill Christ’s great commission: To go forth and make disciples of all peoples though worship, service, and ministry to others in our community and throughout the world.”

Scriptures teach us that Jesus Christ is THE Good Shepherd, and just like sheep who hear and follow the shepherd we want to follow our shepherd and we pray that we can confess like David in Psalm 23 that ‘The Lord is MY shepherd, I shall not be in want.’ We have a lot happening and we are always looking for new ways to reach out to others with the Good News of Jesus Christ. Sunday Worship, Circle Bible Studies, Men’s Group, Prayer Shawl Ministry, Quilters and Quilt Class, Sunday School for youth preschool through 8th, Confirmation instruction for 7th & 8th graders, and youth mission trips. Bethlehem supports a missionary in Turkey. For many of us, our congregation becomes like extended family --- we rejoice together and we support each other when life is hard.

Come and join us! We are a welcoming people and there is always room for more.

Pastor Linda Johnson-Prestholt
