Recreation

The purpose of the Hopewell Recreation Ministry is to assist the athletes in growing physically, mentally and spiritually through athletic competition. We believe athletics can be a valuable tool in leading people to follow Christ by emphasizing spiritual teaching and coaching, Christ-like sportsmanship, and glorifying God over self.

From softball and basketball, to soccer and flag football and more, we offer yearly recreation and sports activities for adults and children.

For all sports and recreation opportunities as well as coach's resources, visit hopewellrec.com at the button below.
