Servant Opportunities
Do you feel a calling to "get involved" at Hope Church? If so, there are many opportunities for members and attenders of Hope Church to get involved and serve. Listed below are some of our current needs - for more information, contact the person listed, or call the church office to get the contact person's phone number and/or email address.
Website Assistant
A note from Ran: I need a Website Assistant - would you like to help me with the Hope Church website and possibly learn some new skills? If you consider yourself gifted in the areas of writing, spelling and grammar, are detail-oriented and are an effective verbal communicator, you can apply those gifts and skills by assisting in the updating and maintenance of the Hope Church website.
You do not need any special software or knowledge, and you do not need to know HTML, PHP, CSS or JavaScript any of the other computer languages used in this website: I'll teach you what you need to know, and perhaps a lot more - I consider teaching to be one of my gifts! The "verbal communication" skills are important not only in talking to me, but because you will also be a "reporter" who will be verbally contacting various people at Hope Church to gather the facts you'll need to update stories about Hope Church events, Sunday School classes, missions, etc.
For the right person, this is not rocket science - all I ask is that you be a quick study and be attentive to detail. Interested? Contact Ran at (484) 949-2200 for more details.
Adult Ministry Team Members
New small group and class leaders / facilitators are always needed at Hope. Why? Because we will always need new groups meeting at new times and locations with fresh subjects in order to meet the needs of new and veteran attenders, to further seek God's plan for them. This opportunity not only enables one to grow in the Lord, but to discover new friends as well!
Child Care
Child care-givers are needed for special events, meetings and classes to enable parents to participate and grow in small groups and to allow them use their spiritual gifts serving on a team here at Hope Church. Please contact Pastor Ken if you are interested in serving in this ministry.
