The Mission of Hope Is Supported by the Generosity of People Like You!
At Hope we don’t tell people what to give. Rather, we invite you to experience the joy of cheerful giving (2 Corinthians 9:7). This happens when you recognize everything you have is a gift from God (Psalm 24:1), including your salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9). We encourage you to ask, “Lord, what do you want to do through me to accomplish your will for Hope?” What you give is between you and God and is a faithful response to what God is doing in your life!
“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7
