Community Outreach
At New Hope Lutheran Church, we are proud to support and partner with many charities and community organizations, both locally and beyond. As part of our mission to share Christ’s love in tangible ways, we actively participate in outreach efforts that lift up our neighbors and strengthen our community.

We also host our own ministry drives and charitable opportunities throughout the year, made possible by the generosity of our congregation. We are deeply grateful for the hearts and hands of our members who faithfully give, serve, and help make our community a better place for all.
