Once upon a time, in a small town in suburban New England, a small band of slightly disillusioned but committed believers stepped out in faith to take their humble home Bible study and expand it into a full-fledged new church! The 15 families that began this epic journey as a Bible study in 1987 were optimistic about their future, but they never could have predicted how much God would bless their enterprise and really help their new church to blossom. From meeting in homes, to being given office space to use for free, to buying a plot of land and building a small church, to expanding and doubling the size of that little church…God has been leading this group of people forward at an amazing pace to places none of us could ever have imagined!

New Hope was founded in prayer, on the faithful teaching of the inspired Word of God, and through lives of active faith in Jesus Christ. It has always been a place of hope…a place where lives have been transformed and people have been discipled to know their God and serve Him in whatever way they can. God has blessed the vision and direction of the Chapel as it has prayed for, and sought to obey, His will. From the 15 families that began this journey, the Lord has multiplied His blessings on New Hope and the congregation now stands at roughly 100. The Lord has truly blessed us and it is our earnest desire that we would be able to cheerfully, and genuinely, pass on these blessings to those around us. In fact, our church motto is “people helping people to help people” and that really sums up our passion and vision. We invite you to join us in “making history” as New Hope Christian Chapel continues to follow God’s leading in the years to come!
