• Worship- "Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth."  We desire our worship at Hope Church to glorify God, to deepen our spiritual roots and to empower our Christian witness.  We seek to provide room for worshipers of all generations.  Our communal worship gathering is Sunday at 9:30 a.m. 

• Service- Jesus came to serve, not to be served.  As his followers we are called to not only to look out for our own interests but also to the interests of others.  Our deacons lead us in a ministry of mercy, service and outreach to our local Westwood neighborhood, the greater Kalamazoo area and "to the ends of the earth."

• Christian Formation- Our goal for growing in the faith is the same as the Apostle Paul's in Philippians 3:10: "I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings."  We seek to provide learning experiences to children, youth and adults that nurture a growing committement to follow Christ as Savior and Lord.  Sunday School for all ages is from 10:50 until 11:50 a.m. (September- May).  We host Wednesday gatherings as well during the fall, winter and spring at 6:30 p.m. with a meal at 5:30 p.m.

• Fellowship- God calls us to journey together in faith and he gives us brothers and sisters in Christ.  We enjoy many fellowship gatherings for food, fun, prayer, crafts, etc. throughout the year.
