Showing God's Love Through Missions

New Hope is proud to give 20% of our contributions to offer financial and prayerful support of many missionaries, both locally and abroad. We support at least 25+ missions/missionaries, and send additional funds as God blesses us.

Whether it is in our own community or far away, we can express God's love through our mission-inspired ministries, support, outreach, and more!

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature". Mark 16:15

Clothing Ministry
