We want you to know that Jesus loves you, and so do we. That Jesus died for you and rose again, and He wants to give that life to you, and lead you through death that you might come out having conquered it and live forever with Him. It’s a pretty simple truth, but there is so much packed into it. To have this—to have Him, all that is required is receiving Jesus as God, and turning from your sins and following Him—trusting Him. That is what we believe.
I keep using the word we because I’m writing to you on behalf of the Church that meets at New Hope, near Traverse City, Michigan (we’re actually just north, in Williamsburg)! We gather because we love Jesus, want to worship Him together, and to learn from the word of God. First: We want you to know your Savior. You can find out more by clicking the “Find Hope” button or contact us through our connect card form! Second: We want to invite you to come worship with us. Click on “Come to Church” to find a location! Third: We want to invite you to join one of our community groups, care groups, or discipleship groups. People weren’t created to live life alone. In fact, with Jesus, you’ll never have to, and with the Church, you shouldn’t have to either. To see more about these, click on “What’s Next” and select one of the groups.
Lastly, if you would like us to pray for you, we would love to. We want to bring you and your needs before the throne of God. So, click on “Receive Prayer” and let us know how we can pray for you!

All of us have experienced it at different levels – your finances are crumbling; an addiction has sidelined you; domestic abuse continues; a relationship is breaking; a death occurs; a faucet leak and a car breaks down – asking God, “Why? How long? Where are you?”
New Hope firmly believes that God is in the business of transforming messes to miracles.
If you’re a Mess, you’re in good company at New Hope – because we are too. That really is our only prerequisite for being part of New Hope’s church family – a recognition that (apart from Christ) we are a hopeless mess. But in Christ, we have a living hope.
Our Vision
Love God. Love you. Make disciples.
The Great Command
And He said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart... And a second is like it; You shall love your neighbor as yourself..."
Matthew 22:37-39
The Great Commission
And Jesus came and said to them... "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you..."
