A group of New Hope members left late Friday to Mississippi, to assist with the ongoing Hurricane Katrina efforts. Let by Dave Wooster, New Hope Missions Director, the group will stay in a camp during the week. The missions iniative was developed by Wooster, who then served as the chairman of the board at New Hope.
In December, 2006, the church raised over $60,000 in three weeks for the holiday love offering. The offering was designated for missions; local, domestic, and international. The team plans to organize more domestic trips to assist the Katrina efforts, as well as international mission trips.
Pastor Ann Roda will join the team on Sunday.
