Thanks for visiting our website! We are glad you are interested in Hope Baptist and want to make you feel welcome. Here is an idea of what you can expect when visiting us for the first time.

How Large Is Your Church?

We are currently a congregation of about 75 people on Sunday mornings whom the Lord is building into a strong, vibrant ministry to serve Him in these last days. You will find a welcoming, family atmosphere in our services. Many people are concerned about a “closed group mentality” with small churches. We can assure you that this is not the case at Hope. Our congregation loves those that have been here for thirty years just the same as those that walk in the door for the first time.

What Do I Wear?

We do not have a dress code. You are welcome to come dressed as you feel comfortable to worship God. We want you to know that you will find a welcoming atmosphere no matter what you choose to wear.

What Are Your Services Like?

We have children’s, teen, and adult Sunday school classes. Children’s church is provided during the Sunday morning service, and we have a nursery available for all services. Our Sunday morning service focuses more on Biblical preaching, our Sunday afternoon service more on Biblical teaching, and our Wednesday evening service is geared more for Biblical devotion and intercessory prayer. Our teen’s and children’s clubs meet separately during our Wednesday evening service from September-May.

You will find us to be very conservative in our music and methodology of ministry. We sing congregational hymns out of a hymn book, and intersperse older and newer hymns in as well from other sources. We use the King James Version translation of the English Bible for memorization and ministry, but we do not hold to a King-James-Only position.  The preaching/teaching is expository in nature.  We are seeking the Lord for revival here at Hope and in Barrow County. Prayer is not a secondary thing, but of utmost importance at Hope. “God’s presence” and “family atmosphere” are the two best phrases that we can use to describe what we experience each time that we meet.
