Our Culture of Care

Because of God’s love for us we are called to love others in radical ways. It is our desire that all people of Hopewell extend help, care, compassion, and encouragement both within the walls of the church, in the community, and the world. We seek to create and express this culture of care to everyone.

Pastoral Care News

Mid-Hudson Love in the Name of Christ (Love Inc.) Update

Love Inc. is a local Christian organization that mobilizes volunteers who work together making a difference by helping people in need in our local communities.  Specific ministries within Love Inc. include the Personal Care, Linens, Household Items and Beds Ministries.  We request and welcome donations of items particular to those ministries that come from many churches within the local area.  The people we serve are badly in need of the items we provide.  Things we take for granted are much needed by the many needy people in our area.  Hopewell Reformed can help out by placing items in the storage bin which is on the left once you go through the main entrance.  Just open the door and the bin is at the base of the stairs.  Items will be delivered to Love Inc. in a timely manner.  Items in need include:


Person Care Ministry -  Bath soap, laundry detergent, dish soap, toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, shampoo and conditioner, razor/shaving cream, toothpaste/brush, deodorant, feminine hygiene products, comb/brush

Linens Ministry (new or gently used) – Bed sheets, bedspreads, pillows(new), blankets, bath towels, washcloths, kitchen towels
