What to Expect

Our welcoming community at New Hope Lutheran Church is centered around celebrating the gifts that God gives us. We firmly believe that church is a place for everyone, the sinful, hurting, or broken, and anyone continuing to expand their faith.

Based in Hudsonville, Michigan, New Hope Lutheran Church brings people together from all walks of life to share hope in Jesus.

We strive to make New Hope Lutheran Church a place where everyone feels welcome, for we all find ourselves in need of:

  • FORGIVENESS: “I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” MARK 2:17
  • REST: “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” MATTHEW 11:28
  • HEALING: “O LORD my God, I cried to you for help, and you have healed me.” PSALM 30:2
  • FELLOWSHIP: “And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” ACTS 2:42
  • LOVE: “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.” 1 JOHN 4:7”

Worship

Sunday worship is a time to be reminded of who we are in Jesus. In every worship service we get to praise God for who He is and what he has done for us, hear His word, and receive the forgiveness of our sins.

Following every service, we come together for fellowship. We have snacks (donuts once a month!) and enjoy each other’s company.

You can explore recorded sermons and join us in person or online every Sunday at 10:15 AM.

Summer Fun Nights

Summer Fun Nights are events organized by the education board to facilitate fellowship among congregation members and also serve as outreach opportunities within the community. Themes vary, but food, games, and fun activities for all ages are the essential elements that comprise all Summer Fun Night Events.

We Believe

New Hope Lutheran Church is a supportive community of family, friends, and faith. As a part of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod (LCMS), we worship together and grow in faith, becoming better equipped to serve our Hudsonville, Michigan community.

We strive to reach new heights in our relationships with each other and God through the good news of Jesus’ death and resurrection.

  • The Bible is God’s inspired, infallible Word.
  • In the Bible, God is revealed as The Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • God created the world and all that exists.
  • Man is born with original sin and cannot save himself.
  • We need God’s law to remind us of our sin and move us to repent.
  • God answers the prayers of believers.
  • God expects all Christians to be baptized, including infants.
  • Baptism makes you a member of Christ’s body, the Church.
  • God’s Holy Spirit works on the hearts of His people through Word and Sacrament to create, strengthen, and guide our faith.
  • Jesus Christ, true God and true man, born of the Virgin Mary, died on the cross for all sins, and rose bodily on the third day.
  • When a person receives Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, they will want to live according to the will of Christ by: putting Christ first in their life, worshiping on a regular basis, studying God’s Word regularly, using the Sacraments frequently, giving faithfully to the work of Christ’s Church, seeking ways to serve Him through ministry to others, and telling others of His wondrous love.
  • Salvation through the forgiveness of sins comes only through faith in Jesus Christ as personal Lord and Savior.
  • The body and blood of Christ are really present in the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper for the forgiveness of sins. Only those who share that belief should commune with us.
  • God strengthens our faith and love through the Lord’s Supper
