As the vibrant colours of autumn emerge, a fresh season begins at Hope Centre Ministries. Fall is our time to reconnect with familiar faces, welcome new friends, and deepen the sense of faith, friendship, and belonging that makes our community so special.
This season, we’re excited to expand our programs—both in person and online—focusing on meaningful social connection, spiritual growth, and creating safe, inclusive spaces for adults and individuals with disabilities.
Community Sundays: Faith in Action
At the heart of our in-person programming, Community Sundays are more than worship—they are experiences designed to inspire, connect, and celebrate God’s work in our lives. Each month has its own theme, encouraging participants to explore faith in meaningful ways.
In September, we’ll gather to reflect on Truth and Reconciliation, combining learning, discussion, and celebration with a special musical guest. These gatherings foster spiritual growth, peer connection, and hands-on learning, offering every participant the chance to belong, share, and celebrate God’s love.
Friendship From Home: Connection Anywhere
Distance or physical limitations should never block access to community. Our Friendship From Home online Bible study provides a weekly opportunity for individuals with disabilities to grow in faith, engage in discussion, and feel fully included—all from the comfort of home.
Each session includes interactive lessons and small-group connections, designed to create a sense of joy, belonging, and spiritual growth for everyone involved.
Mid-Week Meets: Connection Beyond Sunday
Friendship and community matter every day. Our Mid-Week Meets bring adults with disabilities together to share, learn, and build meaningful relationships. This fall, we’re moving indoors to accessible malls and churches, keeping our mid-week gatherings safe, fun, and welcoming.
These meetups meet a critical need: providing social interaction and companionship for those who might otherwise feel isolated. It’s a chance to laugh, connect, and feel part of something bigger.
A Fresh Start: Staff and Rhythm
With summer behind us, the HCM team is resetting, refocusing, and planning for a new season of growth and connection. We’re establishing routines that empower participants, nurture friendships, and celebrate the ways God is at work in our community.
Fall is a season of renewal, rhythm, and meaningful participation, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back to our programs.
