Mission Ministry

“ To love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first greatest commandment, and the second is like it: Love your neighbor like yourself.” (Matthew 22:37-39) The Mission Ministry of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church represents saints of God, people of hope and compassion. We are to witness for Christ, and walk in the spirit. We do this by believing that God the Holy Spirit is with us, having been sent by God the Son into our hearts.

Our desire is to help relieve temporal needs of individuals, families, and the community as we grow spiritually.
