Meet Our Dedicated Leadership Team
At Good Hope Lutheran Church, our leadership team is committed to guiding our community with faith, compassion, and integrity. Together, we strive to create a welcoming environment where everyone can grow spiritually.
Our Mission:
We are grounded in faith, gathered in love, and sent with a purpose; so that others may gain the Kingdom.
Our core biblical beliefs
We stand firm in the Lutheran tradition, rooted in scripture and grace. Our faith centers on salvation through Christ alone, not by works but by God's unconditional love. We believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, providing guidance and truth for our lives. Scripture teaches us that we are saved by grace through faith, a gift from God that transforms hearts and renews spirits. Our theological foundation follows the teachings of Martin Luther, emphasizing personal relationship with God, scriptural authority, and the redemptive power of Jesus Christ. We practice open communion, welcoming all believers to share in the sacramental journey of faith. Our church embraces both spiritual depth and compassionate community, understanding that true faith manifests through love, service, and genuine connection with one another.
Use of the Means of Grace
Lutherans understand that God comes to us through the Means of Grace - the Word of God and the Sacraments of Baptism and Communion. Our relationship with God deepens through them as we grow in our faith.
Holy Communion
Communion is the means of grace by which God forgives, restores, welcomes and builds community. We believe that through the earthly elements of bread and wine, the body and blood of Christ are truly present. At Good Hope, we welcome all to God's table!
Holy Baptism
Baptism is the means of grace by which we become children of God and are given the promise of the Holy Spirit. Through water and the Word, God liberates us from sin and death by joining us to the death and resurrection of Jesus. We are born to a fallen humanity, in bondage to sin, yet through baptism, we are reborn children of God and inheritors of eternal life.
