New? Start here!

We're so glad you are here! We believe you are family as soon as you walk through the door. And this counts- you're using our digital door! We know meeting someone for the first time can be intimidating... so here's some highlights about us to break the ice:

• We're all about Jesus here- and want to share His love, grace and forgiveness with you!
• We meet for Sunday worship at 10am at 75 E. Schrock Rd Westerville, OH 43081
• We have HopeKids ministry for little ones, all staffed with background checked and trained volunteers
• Our mission is to love God, love others, and share hope!

Westerville is our area of accountability, but we are part of a bigger family of churches called the Christian and Missionary Alliance - a family with the vision to share all Jesus for all the world by caring for suffering and overlooked people through 2,000 U.S. churches and more than 700 international workers serving in 70 countries.

Hope Church meets every Sunday at 10am - but we start brewing coffee at 9:30, so feel free to come hang out early! Our welcome team LOVES people and conversation. If you're bringing little ones, you'll want to arrive around 9:45 so we can get them checked in and you can meet our background-checked volunteers!

Hope Church meets at 75 E. Schrock Rd, Westerville, OH 43081. You'll see some special visitor spots saved just for you when you pull into the parking lot!

In total, a Hope Church service is about 90-100 minutes in length. Services begin with the worship team leading the church in music - song lyrics are projected onto the screens so you can sing along and/or engage with worship however you feel led. After the music portion of service is complete, our pastor or leadership will come out to share an encouraging and hope-filled message about Jesus. We also take a little time in between to share news about the Hope Church family, greet one another, or share updates from the leadership team.

Sunday's at Hope are welcoming, worshipful, and relaxed. Come as you are and expect to feel welcomed as beloved family.

We believe that kids should have a blast at church every single week - and at HopeKids, we make this a priority. The other thing we make a priority is your children’s safety. Because of that, we have a detailed check-in process for our HopeKids program the first time that you visit. You’ll want to leave yourself an extra ten minutes to get signed in for the HopeKids experience. HopeKids is offered at every Hope Church service for kids ages infant through Grade 5.

"Honestly, I was a little anxious attending Hope for the first time...a little unsure of what to expect. But as soon as I walked through the front doors it felt like home."
