Connect and make a difference.
We connect with each other and the community through the ministries at Hope Church.
I Thessalonians 5:11 - Encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.
IronMen Ministry
The IronMan men's ministry, established at Hope Church in 2017, initially began as a men's Bible study. However, it quickly evolved into a transformative men's group, resembling a cohesive military unit, where lives are bound together by a shared commitment to "one for all and no man left behind."
Drawing inspiration from Proverbs 27:17, which wisely states, "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another," IronMan members unite in fellowship. We begin each meeting with a communal meal and then break into smaller groups to delve into the Word of God, seeking its practical application in our daily lives. Our aim is to become better men of God, to live with unwavering devotion to Christ's example, and to excel as fathers, husbands, family members, as well as active participants in our church and community. We conclude each gathering with prayer and praises.
In essence, we are earnestly striving to fulfill the urging of Paul in Ephesians 4:1, "As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received."
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT: Recognizing the vital role of being Godly men in the community, IronMan members extend their strength beyond the group. With our IronMan spirit, we leverage our skills and abilities to assist those in need with home and property projects, as well as provide support to other churches in enhancing their facilities.
RETREAT: As part of the San Diego area Nazarene Community, we attend the annual men's retreat in the early fall. During this weekend getaway, we come together with other men from the SoCal district for fellowship, solid biblical teaching, and activities. We return reinvigorated by the Holy Spirit and ready to embrace our mission anew.
OBJECTIVE: The ultimate goal and objective of the IronMan ministry is to profoundly impact and transform men's lives for Christ.
Our meetings take place every Thursday evening from 5:45 PM to 7:30 PM at Hope Church of the Nazarene at 1755 Thibodo Road in Vista, California.
Join us on this inspiring journey of faith and transformation. For more information, contact Marty Leonard.
Worship Ministry
A song can lift your spirits toward heaven, seep through the cracks of a hardened or broken heart, and bring the message of God's love and salvation with it.
Through the worship ministry at Hope Church we want God to use our gifts, to glorify Him, and lead His people into a place of worship and praise.
AV Ministry
This important ministry brings the sights and sounds of our worship services to the people of Hope. From projecting songs or videos, balancing the sound of the band, and ensuring that the message can be heard clearly, our AV team works behind the scenes to make God's message accessible to everyone at Hope during all facets of the service.
Women's Ministry
The purpose of the women’s ministry is to facilitate regular opportunities for fellowship, discipleship, and mission, and to help the women of Hope Church grow in the knowledge, likeness, and experience of Christ.
Through times of fellowship, Bible studies, and serving, we seek to grow as worshipers, disciples, and women of God.
Book Club
The Hope Church Book Club meets monthly to discuss various and different Christian books.
Landscape Ministry
The Landscape Ministry team works to beautify and maintain the grounds at Hope. They plant, prune, water, and much more to make sure that the facilities are welcoming to members and visitors alike.
Children are the future, and at Hope Church we want to partner with your family to train your children up to be men and women of God. Join us on Sunday mornings for Bible stories, songs, activities, and fun!
