Hope Community Church

About this church

Hope Community Church in South Portland, Maine, meets for worship every Sunday at 10 a.m. at 879 Sawyer Street. Services run about 75 minutes and combine singing, teaching from the Bible, and prayer for the church family, the community, and missionaries the congregation supports. Communion is typically served on the first Sunday of each month. The style is described as neither strictly contemporary nor traditional, mixing modern songs with older hymns and including the Apostles' Creed and Lord's Prayer at least monthly. Coffee and baked goods are usually available before the service, and casual dress is the norm.

Children's options include a nursery for infants through age two and Hope Kids for preschool and elementary ages, using the Gospel Project curriculum. Parents who prefer to keep children nearby can use the parents' room, where the service is streamed. Beyond Sunday, the church lists a weekly playgroup for parents of small children, a community garden, a monthly seniors' gathering, and a few small group studies. Services are also available live online. The office is open Tuesday through Friday during the day; confirm times on the website before visiting.
