House of Hope
Our Family
Welcome to House of Hope in Cranbrook, BC, Canada. We are an Apostolic Resource Center in which family is the central motivation, our heart is to serve our city and see a cultural transformation take place. We believe revival is not a one-time event but something that happens daily in the lives of God’s children.
Our number one goal is to host God’s presence wherever we go. To allow Him to use us in every area of society. We are passionate lovers of Him. Worship is a core value that propels us into His presence and allows His presence to come freely. We have been mandated to build a place where He is welcome to have His way…
Our History
The roots of House of Hope started as a home group in the fall of 2009. We were a group of people who for one reason or another, had found themselves without a church family. Most of us had been friends for years so we found ourselves being drawn together to pursue Gods presence, worship and explore what family looked like in a church setting.
In January 2010, we felt the Lord say it was time to make a move to something more organized. In a sense, the Cloud was moving us out of where we were camping and into something new. In May 2010, we formed a gathering called House of Hope. We hosted our first public gathering in June 2010. There were 53 people in attendance and we really didn’t know what to do or how to do it.
Statement of Faith
We Believe
There is only one true God who is the eternal King, Creator and Redeemer of all that is. He is perfectly holy, just, loving and truthful. He has revealed Himself to be eternally self-existent – one being in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
The Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God.
Humankind was created in the image of God to know and enjoy Him, yet we willfully rejected the Lordship and glory of God for which we were intended. Because of this, sickness, death and judgment entered the world and now creation experiences the effects and consequences of sin.
Giving
“Since you excel in everything – in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in the love we have kindled in you – see that you also excel in this grace of giving.” -2 Corinthians 8:7
