Welcome to the Fellowship!
Life isn’t perfect. But we believe that when we open ourselves to God’s love, we find love, faith and joy. You now have a church home at Wesley Church of Hope, and we are excited to connect with you online and in person.
This learning series is ideal for new Christians, new members, and youth who are ready for confirmation in the United Methodist Church.
The course spans 5 weeks and includes five 1-hour zoom sessions to introduce course material, answer questions, and review. Participants also have the option to work independently at their own pace and watch replays of previously recorded zoom sessions.
