Hope Church Portsmouth

Main Meetings:

Sun 09:30 Pre Service Prayer
We gather each Sunday to Pray for a great move of the Power of the Holy Spirit in these days. We listen to what the Holy Spirit is wanting to say to us Today, and pray over one another ahead of the 'Main' gathering that starts at 10:30am Sun 10:30 Worship and Teaching
Each Sunday we gather across all ages to worship together, and engage in the teaching. We have various age groups for kids and youth ministries that happen during the gathering. The doors open at 10am so come along early to meet some people, get a drink and snack, and if coming with kids register them for their groups. Sun 18:30 Sunday Evening
On the first Sunday of each month we gather in the evening for an extended time of worship and prayer. We slow down and create more space for practicing the gifts of the Spirit, and building one another up in the faith. Thu 10:30 Hope Cafe
