GROW YOUR FAITH
Sunday Morning Worship
At Elevate Hope we believe the primary and paramount means of growing your faith is regularly participating in Sunday morning worship, where Christ has promised to meet His people in:
Word:
The reading, teaching and preaching of the Word of God publicly in the church, through which God meets with and speaks to His people.
Sacrament:
The regular participation in the covenantal meal Christ instituted for His disciples, whereby these “visible words” preach and personalize the Gospel message to Christ’s covenant people, those who have been united to Him in baptism.
Prayer:
The pouring out of our hearts to God in prayer, praise, lament, confession and thanksgiving, in which we experience and strengthen our intimacy with the Lord.
It is through these ordinary means of grace that God meets and communes with His people, nourishing and cultivating their faith.

GROWTH GROUP
In addition to our Sunday morning worship service, we also have our Growth Group class that meets Sunday mornings at 9:00am to dive deeper into questions about God and the historic Christian faith.
This group serves as a wonderful way to prepare for worship each Sunday, and to grow in your walk with Jesus and the community of Elevate Hope. This group is for all ages and is a great place to invite anyone at any point in their faith.

Elevate Hope Prayer Night
At Elevate Hope we believe in the power and necessity of praying together as the church and trusting God to grow us in the area of prayer.
Do you want to learn how to pray? To see God work in your life and in the life of Elevate Hope? Join us for our Prayer Night on the first Sunday of each month from 5:30-7:30pm!
We meet in our pastor’s home to share a meal and then spend time in prayer together for each other’s needs, the needs of our church and the needs of our wider communities (city, state, nation, world).
Come and be a part of Elevate Hope’s prayer ministry as we trust God for great things in and among us! We also have a weekly Prayer Meeting that now meets every Friday morning at 6:30am - contact us for more info!
