About Mount Hope Baptist Church
Our Mission
At Mount Hope Baptist Church, our mission is to create a welcoming and inviting community where all are encouraged to experience the transformative power of faith. We seek ways to carry out the work of Jesus Christ and the Great Commission- in sharing the Gospel. This is a major goal of the church. "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you..." Matthew 28:19-20
