Mission

With Christ as our center, we are called to reach out and share God's love to all.

Vision

We believe God calls us to continue a faithful witness of openness and acceptance of others. It is our understanding that God is calling our church to help people live a faith that is meaningful and relevant for their lives. This includes reaching out to others, sharing our faith and nurturing those who are here to help them grow in faith.

Values

We welcome anyone at Hope, because people are valued by God.
We are committed to helping people of all walks of life grow in their faith.

We value small group ministries, as a way for people to live out their faith in a context of a supportive environment.

We are committed to mission, continually reaching beyond ourselves to the Eau Claire community and the world at large to share the Hope of Jesus within us.

We endeavor to provide quality experiences through our worship and ministries, understanding that we are engaged in helping people come in touch with God in a way that is meaningful for their lives.
