Sunday Night Live!
New Hope’s Sunday Night Live is an exciting and challenging place youth ministry for students to come and learn about their relationship with God and with each other. No boring meetings or long lectures. It's pumped-up events, exciting trips, and relevant discussions with a biblical foundation about issues facing students today. We have developed a strategy to lead students into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. We believe students need strong Christian role-models who are authentic in their faith and sincere about their desire to follow after God’s heart.

Sunday Night Live creates an environment where middle and high school students can:
  • Be welcomed
  • Enjoy the presence of God
  • Learn about themselves and others
 
We're Glad You're Here!

Whether you're new to the area or just checking out church for the first time, we want you to feel at home here. From nursery to senior adults, we have groups and events tailored to every member of your family, with opportunities to connect, grow and serve.

We were all new once, and we remember what it was like. So let us calm your fears and make you feel right at home. This page will give you an idea what to expect; simply click on the questions below.

Nursery

"He took a little child and had him stand among them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them, 'Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.' " Mark 9:36-37

Our Infant & Toddler Program works primarily with volunteers to provide a loving, safe environment that encourages developmental growth. The nursery is open every Sunday during services, beginning at 9:30 AM, and is filled with toys appropriate for a baby’s wide range of development.

Every child placed in our care is a unique gift from God, created in His image and will receive Christian love, care, and education in an atmosphere where Christ is the center of our lives.

 
What to expect

LifeGroups are a place where newcomers are warmly welcomed. Being our guest does not obligate you in any way and you will not be asked to participate beyond your comfort level. The purpose of LifeGroups is to care for one another and help each individual  move forward on his or her spiritual journey. We offer LifeGroups for all seasons of life: children, youth, adults, PrimeTime, individuals, couples, men only, women only, for support or recovery, for those young in their spiritual journey, for those who are continuing to mature their faith, and more. Please click on the questions below to learn more.

The New Testament teaches us that the first Christians were formed into a group of twelve by Jesus (Matthew 4:18-22). The early church met in homes and shared their lives with each other (Acts 2:42-47). Our LifeGroups vary in size, but most are made up of six to twelve people. Sunday morning on-campus groups may be larger.

LifeGroups meet weekly at various times and locations, either On- or Off-Campus, for a couple of hours. Everyone's schedules are different, and each group is free to decide the best time and place that fits them. Groups are encouraged to have a host apart from the leader. This allows someone to utilize a unique gift, and it takes pressure off of the leader. To see a complete list of the groups, please select either the On-Campus or Off-Campus links below.

More than just another Bible study, each LifeGroup allows time for fellowship, care and accountability, prayer, study, and fun. LifeGroups are a place where people experience spiritual growth the way Jesus taught. Each group is unique, but we all share the common purpose of "loving God, connecting with others, and serving everyone." It's an environment where God is active in people’s lives, creating meaningful relationships in which to celebrate good times, support through disappointing times, and serve one another.

Another component of our LifeGroups is outreach through service. Each group chooses a community project such as working at the Kansas City Rescue Mission, helping a senior citizen with their home repairs, collecting food for the Northland Food Pantry, and more. For an extensive list, please visit our Compassion page in the Serving Everyone section.
