Our Hope Ministries

Who We Are
What is Our Hope Ministries ?

Our Hope Ministries exists with the desire that all youth in our area are reached with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and that they discover the meaning of a personal, life changing relationship with our Lord.

One of the ways that young people can be reached is through major events that will put hundreds, or even thousands, of youth together with a common purpose. Just as important is the existence of a follow up program to further disciple our youth. All of this is best done in conjunction with the local church.

Our Hope is to help to coordinate participation at these kinds of major events; to handle the 1001 administrative details; to help raise the money for the youth who can't afford to pay their own way; to have as many (or as few) of the local church's youth leaders as are interested accompany their youth on the events.

Examples of the types of events that we envision are winter weekend retreats, service projects with a Christ centered emphasis, conferences such as Youth For Christ's DC '2003, ice skating nights, Christian music concerts, a week at a Christian summer camp, and any similar Christ centered activities which would appeal to youth. We would also be interested in getting suggestions from you for other kinds of events which you would like to see happen.

There are two major reasons for events such as this. The first reason for these events is outreach. The purpose is to spread the Gospel of Jesus' death and resurrection for us, and our need to commit to Him as Lord. The goal is a life changing, personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

The other reason for these events is that they provide our youth with fellowship and identification with other Christian youth. Do you know how many youth think that they are the only Christian in their school? These kinds of events put our young people together with many other believing youth, and they can literally see that they are not alone.

Our Hope Ministries is an independent, non-profit youth ministry and is not affiliated with any specific church or denomination. Our Hope Ministries is tax exempt under the provisions of 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. It is our desire to serve and assist any local churches which are interested in our ministry.

We would like to work with you in reaching the youth of our area for our Lord.
