Since 1958, the Mission of Hope Lutheran Church is to receive, celebrate and proclaim the Christian message of love, compassion, forgiveness of sin, and eternal life among each other and the world. We are a very friendly, servant-hearted, family-oriented, community building and food-loving congregation! We strive to shine Christ's brilliant light and hope in a world that desperately needs to hear

that you are loved and you are enough. We are a church in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and in that, our mission is: "Together in Jesus Christ we are freed by grace to live faithfully, witness boldly and serve joyfully. Our values are grounded in faith, in our biblical and Lutheran confessional sources and our love of God and neighbor."

The Hope Lutheran Early Education Center Pre-K graduation was a huge success that was only possible due to the hard work of our Director, Teachers, and Staff who put in so many extra hours practicing with the kids, and then joyfully directing them throughout the day.

Based on the number of pictures that were taken and video that was recorded today should be shared for years to come.

As a safety precaution, we don’t often share pictures of children on our social media, but that rule doesn’t apply to the HLEEC staff and teachers, especially when they are caught being joyfully silly and childlike. 😉🤣

Progress, one step at a time…Do you need a place to sit and talk, or a place to sit and not talk? Maybe a place to relax and pray? The coffee is always ready on the “Vicars Veranda”.

Eventually the Vicars Veranda will add a few more pavers to make more room, an umbrella for those hot and sunny days, and maybe the door that was closed over on the inside will be re opened for easy access. One step at a time. 😀

Today is a day filled with joy, celebration, and hope as we gather for the Hope Lutheran Early Education Center Pre-K Graduation at 4:00pm!

What a blessing it has been to watch these young children grow in knowledge, confidence, kindness, creativity, and friendship throughout the year. They have learned so much more than letters and numbers. They have learned how to share, how to care for one another, how to ask questions, how to laugh, and how to trust that they are loved by God and by this community.

As a church family, we celebrate not only this milestone but also the bright future that lies ahead for each child. We give thanks to our dedicated teachers, supportive families, and everyone who helps make Hope Lutheran Early Education Center such a special place for children to learn and grow.

Congratulations to the Class of 2026! May you continue to grow with hope, trust, curiosity, and joy as you take your next steps forward.

"HOPE IN WORSHIP"
What do you think, is it acceptable to clap, applause, or cheer during worship services?

This is what the ELCA has said on the topic:
These responses should not be considered the final word on the topic, but useful guides that are to be considered in respect to local context with pastoral sensitivity.

Post a reply or feel free to stop by my office to chat.
