Location: Bloomington , MN
Organization Name: Mt. Hope Lutheran Church
Mt Hope’s mission is God’s mission. Our vision is to reach our friends and neighbors with the truth, love and hope of Jesus Christ while growing as His disciples.
Faithfully working to fulfill that vision is why we exist as a church. We are a missional congregation and missional congregations think, live, and act according to Christ’s Great Commission, to “Go and make disciples of all people, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them everything I have commanded you.”
Here we are reminded that God never told the world to go to the church, but He told the church to go to the world. This is our challenge as the body of Christ in Bloomington, Minnesota; it is the driving force of all that we do.
After 60 years of worshiping in an all purpose room we are celebrating the anniversary by completing the building of our first sanctuary by the end of this spring. To God be the Glory!
