Hey New Hope Family!

When I watch football, I am always amazed at the big plays that alter the game and in some cases alter the team’s whole season. We love watching players make those big plays like a dramatic catch in the 4th quarter or a long field goal at the end of regulation play. Those plays are amazing and highlight the stars of the team, but how often do we see credit given to the rest of the team?

Sometimes we look at pastors in that same way. We see pastors making the big plays but don’t always notice how much everyone else does to set up those big plays. I want to make sure that this isn’t the case here at New Hope.

We have MANY people serving the church and building the Kingdom of God. In October we celebrated Pastor Appreciation Month but I wanted to make sure we honor, respect and recognize all those who serve at New Hope!

We, as your pastors, know that we cannot do what we do without our awesome volunteers!

This Sunday let's say "Thank you" to someone who is serving on one of the teams below. It’s because of people who serve on these teams that your pastors can make those big plays.
