“Finding The Hope has given us an incredible opportunity to have a lasting impact on our community and it has impacted the life of our church as well!”
“The whole process helped our congregation pray together like we had not before … and has helped us look outside ourselves … to think and care more about those we were mailing to.”

“A strategic endeavor to sow the message of life and hope in Jesus Christ in every home in this city.”

community, and resourcing individual Christians so that they might share their faith with others.”
