Mount Hope Christian Center – Church & School

Mount Hope Christian Center describes itself as one church in two locations, Belmont and Burlington, made up of people who follow Jesus and want to grow in their love and knowledge of him. Sunday morning worship is held at both campuses, and messages have explored themes such as the way of life in God’s kingdom. The church aims to help members deepen their faith and lead others to do the same, with teaching centered on the person of Jesus.

Newcomers can take a four-session course covering the history and heartbeat of Mount Hope and practical ways to get connected, grow in faith and lead others. Much of church life happens in small groups that meet in homes around the area, where members share meals, build friendships and practice intentional discipleship. The congregation treats giving as an act of worship and encourages living below one’s means in order to give beyond one’s limits.
