This Sunday is the FINAL DAY to register for the conference!
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion?”
Jesus invites us to come to find rest in him: “Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” (Matthew 11:28-30, MSG)
In this world that seethes with turmoil, genuine peace seems unattainable. In this conference, Dr. Siang-Yang Tan will:
Show us how we can transform stress into rest by God’s grace;
Help us understand what is the true nature of rest;
Challenge us to experience rest through nine key disciplines;
Appreciate the true meaning of eternal rest through the salvation of Christ.

We invite you to a seminar on "Women & Leadership: A Closer Look at 1 Timothy 2:11-15" on Sunday, May 25, 11:30 AM in room #312. Pastor Charles will share different interpretations of the passage and various positions held by Christians on the role of women at church. We will reimagine together how New Hope can be a place where women are celebrated and equipped for ministry, together with men at church and mission in the world.
We invite all men, women, and children to come and pray together on Friday, June 6, from 7 to 9 PM, in room #308. Please mark the date on your calendars!

We are currently seeking volunteers in the following areas.
First, the Sunday Snacks team has been faithfully serving our members and guests every Sunday, and we are seeking new members to join our snacks team for the 2025 season. Volunteers will share the tasks of purchasing, setting up, serving, and cleaning up.
Second, we are seeking two volunteers to assist with dishwashing on a rotational basis every Sunday. You would be committing no more than an hour of your time immediately after our fellowship snack time each Sunday.
If you have the heart to serve our community, please contact Heidi Park or Deacon Terry Lim in the fellowship hall or kitchen on any given Sunday. We would love to serve with you.

We have an immediate opening for a part-time Administrative Assistant.

GYM USE ON SUNDAYS
On Sundays, ball play in the gym from 11 AM to 1:30 PM will be prohibited because it has been impacting the worship service in the kindergarten room (located adjacent to the gym). The half of the gym closer to the fellowship hall will be available for playing, but we ask that you keep the noise level down.
As a church family, we follow the Robert Murray M’Cheyne (RMM)’s two-year Bible reading plan. For 2025, we will be on year-2 which will take us through the second half of the Old Testament, plus all of the New Testament and Psalms.
You can pick up a paper copy from the Welcome Table (by the entrance), download the PDF or subscribe to the Google calendar reading plan.
COLLEGE & YOUNG ADULTS GATHERINGS
If you’re a university/college student, we would love for you to join our College and Young Adults (CYA) gatherings after service every Sunday at 12:30 PM in Room #316 and every Fridays at 7 PM in Room #312. Come and join our mission-driven community of young people as we learn to follow Christ as we care for one another. New people are always welcome!
