"I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me. He will send from heaven and save me; he will put to shame him who tramples on me. Selah God will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!"
Psalm 57:2-3
Hello Hope Bible Church,
What an incredible summer so far! We continue to see the Lord changing lives for His glory, people passionately worshipping Him in spirit and truth; and serving for the glory of our King. Thank you Jesus for building Your church! Here's a snapshot as to what is coming up. Please be in prayer for each of these areas; and seek the Lord in prayer for how He would have you jump in! Let's go!

ANNOUNCEMENTS
Reminder
Please do not have any food or drink other than water in the sanctuary before, during or after the service. Thank you for your cooperation in this.
Hope Prays
A house of prayer is a house that sees their need for prayer and comes alongside each other in prayer. As Elders, it is a privilege and joy for us to pray for you. In lieu of our Connection Cards, please be sure to submit your prayer requests and praise reports via the “Hope Prays” link on our website; which can be found here.
Parking at Home Depot - July 27
We have been given an opportunity to serve Calvary church during our upcoming service on Saturday July 27. There is another event happening on the other side of the church (Where we do baptisms) beginning at 6pm. This has necessitated a need for more parking spaces. As such, in the spirit of Philippians 2 in humbly considering the interests of others, to unite in love and humility, on July 27, we ask that all volunteers please park at Home Depot that is across the street. Please park in the part of the parking lot labelled, “Contractor Car Pooling” at the back of the parking lot. For those of you with young children you can drop off your children at church for pre-service and park across the street at Home Depot.
Here is a link to a map and a picture of where to park.
Those who are not on a service team that night will be able to park in the main lot as usual. Our parking team will be able to serve as usual that night; and will direct people to the proper entrance depending on if they are attending Hope or the other event.
Thank you all for your grace, understanding, stewardship of the facility; and care for our brothers and sisters in Christ.
