Ways To Get Involved

Here are different ministries that you can serve in or be served by. 

Life Groups

Here at Hope we encourage everyone to join a Life group. Pastoral care primarily takes place in our Life groups, so we strongly recommend that you get connected with a group as soon as possible. Each Life group is led by a member of the Pastoral Care team. Our vision is that in these smaller “communities” you will develop; strong, supportive relationships and a sense of belonging, continue to grow spiritually, and receive pastoral care and support in in everyday life, as well as in times of crisis or challenge.

To join a Life Group please contact Sandy Elkin (sandy@elkins.co.nz).

Prayer

At Hope Church we are committed to praying for one another and the needs arounds us. We want to pray for our Church, community, and world. If you would like to share a prayer request please contact the head of our prayer chain Joan Buchanan (joanbuch9@gmail.com). 

Pastoral Care Team

For pastoral care needs if you are not currently in a life group, or you feel your needs or circumstances would be best dealt with someone other than your life group leader, please contact the Senior Minister Stu Crosson (stuandmary@xtra.co.nz).
