Welcome Friends, Grace and peace to you from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ through the power and the presence of the Spirit in this place. I welcome you to Hopewell Reformed Church, especially if you are here for the first time. We seek to be a church that knows Christ and makes him known in everything we do. We pray that you experience that today.
