Membership

Welcome to the family.

Membership isn't about simply putting your name on a list. It's saying: “This is my church family, I believe in the mission, and I'm ready to be part of it.”

After you make the membership commitment, text 407-888-9200 with your first and last name and your email address. Joining as a family? One person can text the names of everyone joining.

Membership covenant

I have chosen to follow Jesus Christ, and I commit to continue growing as His disciple.

I choose New Hope as my church family, and I commit to support its mission and vision.

I will faithfully gather, grow, serve, and give, protect the unity of this church, and pray for and support its leaders.

I will live on mission, share the hope of Jesus, and help others become devoted disciples of Christ.

With God's help, I commit to being an active part of the New Hope family.

The Disciple-Making Pathway

12 weeks. Four movements. Adults and NextGen.

God never intended for us to simply attend church. He calls us to actively follow Jesus and participate in His Kingdom.

  1. Follow JesusWhat does it really mean to surrender our lives to Jesus and follow Him every day?
  2. Become Like JesusHow does the Holy Spirit transform our character, our thinking, our relationships, and the way we live?
  3. Serve Like JesusHow do we take our gifts, abilities, time and resources and use them to serve others and advance God's Kingdom?
  4. Multiply Like JesusA disciple of Jesus helps someone else become a disciple of Jesus.
Communion and baptism

Remember. Declare. Follow.

COMMUNION

We remember

We remember what Jesus has done for us. The bread reminds us of His body, given for us, and the cup reminds us of His blood, shed for us.

BAPTISM

We declare

We publicly declare our faith in Jesus. We believe in water baptism by immersion as a public declaration that we belong to Jesus. If you've placed your faith in Christ but have never been baptized, let baptism be one of your next steps.
