Dear Visitor,

Thank-you for your interest in the Center of Hope. Please take a few minutes to check out the rest of our website’s pages.

Our mission statement is "reaching out with God's love and grace to people who have difficult life issues".  Our motto is “Sowing seeds of God’s love. . .physically and spiritually.”  We offer various programs to do just that.  Some include our Bike-to-Work program, Bible Studies, Fellowship Meal, Mother Baby Baskets, Hope Worship Hour and more!

We use I Corinthians 3:6 of the Bible as our ministry verse.  “I (apostle Paul) planted the seed, Apollos watered the plant, but it was God who made the plant grow.” This verse gives our staff and volunteers encouragement.  Many people we meet have heavy stories that are filled with hurt and anguish.  This verse encourages us as we share in their story and offer an encouraging word.  The ministry verse says that God is the boss here; he is the heart surgeon and we are his nursing staff. He is in charge. Knowing that keeps us going.

The Center of Hope has been ministering among people who struggle with difficult life issues since July 2000.  Each person has their own struggle.  We care about each struggle including family concerns, relationship strains, addictions, financial concerns, joblessness, incarceration, hospitalization, spirituality questions, or feelings of hopelessness.  The Center of Hope is a place where people can come, be listened to, encouraged, and refreshed.

No matter your reason for coming to our website, thank-you for visiting us!  We hope to see you soon.

In His love and grace,
