• We invite you tomorrow to New Hope Baptist Church to worship God as we begin our study of the book of Malachi. We will look at the first five verses of God's unconditional election of Jacob. The nation of Israel had neglected God in worship through their tithing and sacrifices. The priests had become very nonchalant in the worship to God. The people were divorcing and getting into bad relationships. The messenger of God called them to repent. Do we see application for the church today? Come and find out. In the 6pm service, we will be studying Philippians 1:12-18. God uses our worst situations for His glory. Paul was in jail and people were preaching for their own selfish interests while God was using all of this to advance the Gospel! How great is our God!! Come out tonight to the Valentines Banquet at 6pm. There will be great food, fellowship, and entertainment! Elvis could still be alive and there will be games and a devotional from Brennan. All donations go to the New Hope Baptist Youth. We invite everyone to come!! God bless and have a great weekend!!

    1. We invite you to worship at New Hope Baptist Church this Sunday as we continue our study of Jonah. As we look at Chapter 3, Jonah is obedient to the Lord and the Lord saves the city of Nineveh! In verse 10, we may question the immutability of God, but our Bible teaches that God is consistent in His character and does not change. So what does this mean? Come Sunday and find out!  The 10:50am service will have the baptism of Kenzie Garrigus and being on the 5th Sunday we will have a blended song service of traditional hymns and some contemporary worship songs. After the service, we are excited to present four new members to our Church!  In the 6pm service, we are excited to have Ben Graves and Rose Hill Baptist Church join us. Brother Ben will be preaching for us on “Preparing the Way” from Matthew 3:1-12. There will be fellowship and refreshments in the Fellowship Hall afterwards. Bring a good snack or dessert and let’s enjoy!  I hope everyone has a great weekend! May the Lord bless you and yours!  In Christ, Michael

        1. We invite you to worship with us at New Hope Baptist Church this Sunday as we study Jonah chapter 2. In Jonah’s prayer to God, we see repentance, praise, Hope , and glorification to God.
