We seek to be a church of worship, prayer, encouragement, and vision. We are a church who connect people to God, grow together, serve the city, and extend God’s kingdom through church planting. We seek to be good news to those who are not a part of the church because God loves all people and we will love them also. We will love and serve the city because God loves the city. We will network and partner with other groups and organizations to collectively serve the city. Our values will shape every aspect of the life of our church.

Jones and I am the Senior Pastor of the City of Hope Church in Bolingbrook IL. We are a new church plant currently in the gathering phase. We held our first informational meeting on January 28th and have a commitment from 20 individuals to support our church plant. We do not have a website right now because of limited funding. We are in desperate need of one for evangelism and outreach to our community. We need to be able to use it provide info to our launch team. A website will greatly assist us in living out our core value of creativity, innovation, and excellence. It is my hope that we win this great opportunity for our church in it's infant stages, but at the same time I know that any of the church plants that are seeking this website will also be well served by this as they seek to fulfill their mission and expand the kingdom of God. I'll pray that the Holy Spirit guide your decision and direct you to the church plant that needs this the most.__Thank you for the opportunity, __Pastor A. J.
