Service

The Congregation of Hope Mennonite Church strives to follow Christ’s call to be a people of peace, service and reconciliation. These pillars are fundamental to our identity as Mennonites. We focus our efforts helping people who are homeless and those re-entering the community after incarceration.

Family Promise & Hope Home

Four times a year, Hope Mennonite Church hosts unhoused families for a week. This involves providing room, board, and meals. Our congregation also manages and facilitates Hope Home, which is transitional housing for those moving out of our Family Promise program.

Sandwich Saturday

On the first Saturday of each month, Hope Mennonite Church prepares and delivers 80 sack lunches to those who are in need around the area of St. John’s Episcopal Church.

Hope Mennonite Craft Bazaar and Peppernut Sale

The annual fund-raising event includes the sale of crafts and food items. Peppernuts, the small, crunchy, spiced cookies, are a tradition in German Mennonite culture and a perennial favorite. Other food for sale includes bierocks, chicken noodle soup, and cinnamon rolls and other baked goods. The Bazaar is held the second Saturday in November every year. All proceeds from this event are donated to agencies and organizations.
