Letter From Pastor Wayne
Dear ‘Ohana,
Wow! I can’t believe we’re into the last few months of 2016. In September, we were able to
celebrate our 21-Year Anniversary. God has been so faithful to New Hope!
During our anniversary services, Pastor Jon Burgess and I introduced “Future + Hope,”
which is Phase 2 of our Building Initiative. Then on October 15-16 the entire church rallied
together for an amazing celebration of generosity. Thousands gave financially and pledged
their support to see our future New Hope Oahu ministry home constructed.
If you missed being a part of this historic weekend, it’s not too late to join in. We are
encouraging you to seek the Lord and to give sacrificially as He leads. We’re asking for
everyone to be involved, as no financial contribution is too big or too small. Regardless of
your contribution, please know that we need your prayers, above all.
If you’ve already been faithfully giving to this building initiative through the “Walk of Faith”
commitment — thank you! We couldn’t have gotten this far without your help. Might you
consider joining the Phase 2 “Future + Hope” commitment initiative?
