New Hope Lutheran Church was founded in 1984. We are a member congregation of
the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA),
the largest Lutheran denomination in the United States. We are also part of the
Delaware - Maryland Synod,
a group of ELCA congregations that work together to share the
Good News of Jesus Christ with their communities, welcoming all to share in the
fellowship of God's people. To learn more about what we believe as Lutherans,

Now there are a variety of gifts, but the same Spirit, and there are a
variety of services, but the same Lord; and there are a variety of
activities but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone.
