The day will be marked by a symbolic procession from Monte Vista School, where we worshiped until our building opened in September 1994, to the patio in the heart of our campus. Following a special worship service, we will break bread together at a delicious lunch with fellowship, stories and more…
Everyone is invited! All members, regular worshipers, friends, Children of Hope Preschool families, former members, and the community will be warmly welcomed.
Throughout our history we have been grounded in hope, and we joyfully look forward to a future that promises hope for years to come.
