Connect
Being connected to God is vital for every person’s life of faith. At Point Hope, we hope to be a place where your relationship with Jesus Christ will grow. We encourage you to connect with God daily through devotions and believe that being connected with others is essential for spiritual growth. Being connected with our community is vital for the mission of Point Hope, and we seek to deepen connections with all of those around us. Jesus describes the church as a family, and that is our hope – to be a family. At Point Hope, we have connection groups for couples, men, women, middle and high school students and more. We invite you to learn more about our connection groups. If you would like more information, contact our Connection Group Coordinator, Lynn Jennette.
