Hope Church

About this church

Hope Church is a Shippensburg congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America with a story that began as a church plant in 1990. Its first public worship gathering drew people from the community and sister churches, and the congregation subsequently added Sunday School, youth ministry, and small-group Bible studies as acquaintances became a church family. Today its newcomer material emphasizes grace, community groups, worship, and a welcome that spans different backgrounds.

Sunday worship begins promptly at 10:30 a.m. and is also livestreamed. Visitors are encouraged to arrive early for coffee and conversation, though late arrivals are still welcomed and helped to a seat. Children may remain in worship or use infant and toddler nurseries; each nursery is staffed by two volunteers with background-check clearances. Community groups, Sunday School, and periodic membership classes provide routes into relationships and learning, with current details announced in the Sunday bulletin. The official location page confirms the worship hour, while the welcome page gives unusually practical guidance about arrival, children, and what happens after a first visit.
