God has given us a beautiful story of humble beginnings. You're welcome to learn more as you read about our history and stop by to see what God is up to at New Hope Church today. Make plans to join us in worship on Sunday morning. Stop by our Welcome Center on the main campus. We look forward to meeting you!

In April 1946, 500 leaflets were distributed throughout the community of Crystal and six weeks of persistence and prayer resulted in two children responding for Bible class at the local Village Hall. Those humble beginnings turned into what was known as Crystal Evangelical Free Church for over 60 years. Grateful for many years of powerful ministry and looking ahead to new beginnings, CEFC officially became New Hope Church on July 1, 2007. The church continues to maintain its deep roots in biblical truth and its identity in Christ Jesus. We're a Christ centered community for all people and look forward to what God has ahead!
