Hope Community is a thriving, non-denominational, multi-site church, with pre-COVID attendance of more than 10,000 people. The leadership there is open to creative ideas and effective strategies to reaching a diverse audience and engaging them to experience Jesus.

Hope is currently open at all four campuses, and attendance is growing each week although they are roughly 40-45% of pre-Covid attendance. They are in a transformation process now as they strive to remain relevant and effective in the new church and cultural environment. They are active in reaching people in the community where they are rather than relying on them coming to a campus location, and they have plans to grow in this outreach and living on mission in the community. They are building an online presence and a digital discipleship platform to reach the next generation and current mission partners in the middle of life's challenges. Hope is in a solid financial position, and they have a healthy leadership culture and are excited about the future.

Hope Community is right in the heart of the “Research Triangle”, with locations in Raleigh, Morrisville, Apex and Garner – “Reach the Triangle | Change the World!”
