Drinks and paper products are supplied through the church. A point person may sign up from a Hope Group, Bible study group, or an individual may enlist help from friends and family. One person does not need to be doing all of it. We typically have around 30 people weekly at our gatherings.
All donations may be placed in New Hope’s upstairs kitchenette labeled “Student Ministries” on that Sunday morning OR sent in with a teen on the evening you select. Please contact Deanna Gardner at dgardner1955@hotmail.com or 317.442.9995 if you have questions. You may sign up through this link.

Maundy Thursday & Good Friday
2025-04-17 - 2025-04-18
MAUNDY THURSDAY & GOOD FRIDAY | APRIL 17 & 18
On Maundy Thursday this year we will learn about the first Lord’s Supper, actually a Seder meal, by following the tradition of the Seder. We will sit together at tables in the sanctuary and do just what Jesus and his disciples did 2,000 years ago. There will be no child care offered, because the Seder was a family meal. Since part of the Seder was an actual meal they shared together, we too will share a pitch-in meal. Bring something for about fifteen people… a side dish, main dish, dessert, salad… to share with the rest of the church. We’ll start at 6:00pm and finish around 7:30.
On Good Friday, we’ll gather at the table back in the sanctuary for meditation and worship. We’ll study God’s word around each table, and meditate together on the seven last words of Christ. We will not be sharing a meal that night, but again, our children will be with us at the table. Come ready to see Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross in a new way. We’ll begin at 7:00pm and finish around 8:00pm.

1). You will be making (hands on) dumplings and learn how to cook them.
2). Kayou will teach you the secret “velveting” technique used to tenderize meat like restaurants do.
3). How to make stir-fried rice with sliced pork and veggies.
4). How to make egg drop soup.
