    Are you a mother of preschoolers? Are you looking for friendship, support, and encouragement in your motherhood journey?

    You are officially invited to join Mops@Hope this spring as we move forward, learn to become friends again, show up for each other, and ruthlessly believe the best about each other.

    MOPS meets on the second and fourth Monday of the month. We share breakfast and conversations about the things that truly make for a good life. After all, better moms make a better world.

    Oh- and there’s a program for your preschool kids also!

  4. “Light Up the Church”: Remembering Kristallnacht November 9th

    Hope Chapel of AustinNovember 3rd, 2022Community Updates

    On November 9, 1938, hordes of German paramilitary and citizens attacked Jewish citizens, their homes, schools, businesses, cemeteries and synagogues in what became known as Kristallnacht — the Night of Broken Glass. 

    Over the last decade synagogues around the world have participated in leaving their lights on all night on Nov. 9th.  Churches worldwide will join them to “let their lights shine in the darkness” Saturday, Nov. 9th in solidarity with the Jewish people, to stand against anti-semitism. At Hope Chapel, we will place about 50 “LED candles” in each of our windows visible from the streets, and yard signs out front indicating the purpose. 

    For more information,  visit LightUpTheChurch.org

  5. “Welcome Home” A Future and A Hope Conference – Registration Open Now!

    Mandy RynikerNovember 3rd, 2022Community Updates

    Fostering Hope’s annual adoption and foster care conference, A Future + A Hope is coming up on March 4, 2023.

    This year’s theme is “Welcome Home.”

    Hope Chapel partners with Fostering Hope as we seek to provide holistic support for our own foster/adoptive families and those in our community.

    From Fostering Hope:

    Whether we have adoptive children, foster children, relatives, or we are reunifying with our children after difficult circumstances, our homes should be welcoming. And yet for so many of us, it almost seems laughable to imagine a restful home. 

    Let’s work together to create a community that welcomes children home – even if “home” is temporary! Find more information and register at iamfosteringhope.org.
