Peace Summit
2022-11-05 14:00 - 16:00 (America/Indiana/Indianapolis)
PEACE SUMMIT | SATURDAY, NOV 5, 2-4pm
Jesus left us with a gift. Peace. Most of the time, receiving and living into this gift feels more like a dream than reality. Join us for an afternoon Peace Summit as we unpack the peace we have been given and utilize a practical tool that gives a framework to understand where we are really at today and how we can move toward God’s peace tomorrow. Please register here. You may purchase a book entitled, “The Peace Index” for $22 when you register.

GIRLS ON THE GO | NOV 4, 11:30AM LEAVE CHURCH
This is short notice but we will be attending the 2:00 movie, “The Majestic,” at the Artcraft in Franklin on Friday, November 4. It’s free! The storyline is about an old movie theater in 1951. It stars Jim Carrey and Martin Landau. A blacklisted Hollywood writer gets into a car accident, loses his memory, and settles down in a small town, where he is mistaken for a long lost son.
We will eat at Ann’s Restaurant (77 W Monroe St) at 12:00. It has been rated #1 of 67 restaurants in Franklin by TripAdvisor.
We will leave the church at 11:30 and return to the church around 5:00 as the movie is 2 1/2 hours long.
We have already ordered 15 tickets and have them in hand. We can always order more.

Pastor Appreciation

PASTOR APPRECIATION MONTH | THANK YOU, PASTORSAs we wrap up Pastor Appreciation Month, the desire of the New Hope Council is that we have all taken a deeper look at just how well our pastors, as well as our ministry leaders, serve our church. Yes, we’ve made a special effort this month to let them know how much we appreciate them. But our prayer is that we will all make the effort and take the time to encourage and pray for and express our appreciation for all of our leaders all year long. Remember to look for the prayer calendar on Sunday and initial a date, signifying your commitment to pray for New Hope and our pastors and leaders on that date each month. (More often is good, of course!) Also on Sunday, we will have a reception with some goodies . . . join us in letting our church leaders know how much we appreciate their fruitful ministry!

Our next outing will be Tuesday, September 27, to Brown County. We will leave the church at 8:30am.
We will be touring Cox Creek Mill and Iron Works located along beautiful Salt Creek in Brown County on 18 rolling acres. This is a two story working mill and art studio of items made from metal by owner Brad Cox.
Lunch will be at the Hobnob restaurant (11:00). Free time after lunch to shop. A Nashville train tour is available if you choose. The cost is $7.00 and it is a city tour that lasts 22 minutes.
