The mission of Elevate Hope is to Connect with God through regular worship, Connect with Others through regular fellowship, and to Connect Others with God through our lives, our service and through our outreach.
Connecting with God is all about getting to know God and learning to follow Him; we Connect with God through regular worship. At Elevate Hope, regular worship looks like: regular attendance of our Sunday morning worship service, getting involved in our Sunday morning Growth Group, and individual time spent in prayer and Bible study.
Connecting with Others is all about being known, and getting to know others; we Connect with Others through regular fellowship on Sunday mornings and throughout the week. Beyond the fellowship we have with one another on Sunday mornings, Elevate Hope has always been a church that builds relationships through our Connect Groups that meet throughout the week. In Connect Groups we grow in ways that help us become more like Jesus.
Connecting Others with God is all about using our unique personalities and spiritual gifts to serve others; we Connect Others with God through our lives, our service and our outreach. We don’t follow Jesus just for personal benefit; we follow Him to make a difference in the world, to make disciples. At Elevate Hope we serve the mission in two ways: serving our Elevate Hope community through our Serve Teams, and serving our community at large alongside our Outreach Partners.

Elevate Hope’s vision is to bring the real and lasting hope of Jesus to Metro Denver and beyond by making faithful disciples of Jesus and multiplying gospel-centered churches.
The suburbs are filled with pressure, pretending and performance. Elevate Hope wants to be a church for people who aren’t perfect and don’t pretend to be. A place where anyone at any point on their faith journey can come and feel welcome. Whether you are unsure about who Jesus is and why that matters, are ready to jump right into worship and community alongside us, or somewhere in between—you are always welcome!

Centered on the GOSPEL: The Gospel is the good news that Jesus has come to rescue us from sin and death into eternal life and relationship with God. Everything we aim to do as a church is shaped by the powerful reality of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection (Romans 1:16).
Submitted to SCRIPTURE: We believe that God has revealed Himself in the Scriptures, which are without error and are completely trustworthy. Therefore, the Bible is our ultimate authority. It contains everything we need to know God and faithfully follow Jesus (2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:19-21).
Invested in COMMUNITY: We believe we are called by God to choose community and are bound to maintain regular fellowship and communion with God and with other believers. We believe spiritual growth is nurtured best in Christ-centered community, and we are committed to connecting people into authentic and genuine relationships (Hebrews 10:24-25).
Living on MISSION: We are joining Jesus in the Great Commission of reaching our neighbors, our communities, and our world with the transforming message of God’s saving grace as revealed in the Gospel (Matthew 28:18-20).
Committed to UNITY: We want the Gospel’s power to be evident in our church as the Holy Spirit brings together many diverse people from various walks of life into one unified body in Christ (1 Corinthians 12:12-13).
Devoted in WORSHIP: We seek to worship the triune God together in spirit and in truth, to His glory alone, rejoicing in His presence with us and grateful for His saving grace (Matthew 18:20, John 4:23-24).
Grounded in HISTORY: We are committed to the timeless message of the Bible, which was taught since the early church, and emphasized in the Protestant Reformation. The PCA is a confessional denomination. This means that we have a written confession of faith which we believe to be a good and accurate summary of the Bible’s teaching. Our confession consists of the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Larger and Shorter Catechisms (2 Timothy 3:14-15).
Calling Attention to RELEVANCE: We believe that God’s unchanging message is relevant and life-changing; it is satisfying and fulfilling; and it is living and active. That means that the historic message must be communicated to each generation in contemporary language, forms, and styles that they understand (Psalm 100:5, Hebrews 4:12).
