A Word from the Pastor

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. These words are my greeting most Sunday mornings in worship. It is my greeting to you on this web site. It reflects who we are, what we are about and my hope for you this day. We are all on a spiritual journey and I invite you to explore that at HRC making connections with the church and with Christ. I am glad that you are here.

A Clearing Season

 

There will be a wardrobe in worship at Hopewell this Sunday.  It will be symbolically crammed with all the crud that confuses our lives.  We stuff our stuff in the closet and hope that it stays hidden, and then one day we open it up and it all comes tumbling out.  It is time to clear some things up in our lives; to simplify and sort through what we need to see clearly.  This Lent, for the next six weeks, that will be the image we work with; a clearing season.
