Hope Community Church

About this church

Hope Community Church in Ridley Park gathers for worship on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. at 19 East Ridley Avenue. The site describes it as a non-denominational, independent church that began in 2012 and now worships in a building that was formerly home to First Baptist Church of Ridley Park. School-aged children join their families for the opening worship before leaving for their own Bible lesson. Anyone unable to attend in person can watch a livestream. An informal prayer gathering also meets on the Hope House porch on Sunday mornings from 9:45 to 10:25 a.m.

Children's ministry is called HopeKids. The nursery serves babies through age four for the whole service, and Children's Church for Pre-K through fifth grade begins around the announcements and offering time. Parents check children in with a QR code printed in the bulletin. A private parents' lounge near the Ridley Avenue exit is available for feeding and diapering, and young children are welcome in the worship service. Small groups include a youth group for grades 6-12 on Sunday evenings, men's and women's Bible studies on weeknights from September through May, a monthly men's breakfast study, and a Tuesday evening prayer group. Group locations and dates can change, so confirm details on the church's website calendar.
