Who We Are
A congregation rooted in Christ and committed to Lansing.
Mount Hope United Methodist Church is a purpose-driven congregation that welcomes people from many backgrounds, experiences, and seasons of life. We gather to worship God, grow in faith, and serve our neighborhood with humility and consistency.
The shape of our church life
Worshiping community
Prayer, Scripture, preaching, music, and Holy Communion keep Christ at the center of our life together.
Intergenerational church
Children, youth, adults, and older members all have a place in worship, learning, and service.
Neighborhood presence
We want our block, our schools, and our city to experience the love of Christ through practical care.
What you can expect when you visit
You can expect warm hospitality, meaningful worship, a mix of long-time members and first-time visitors, and clear paths into prayer, study, music, and outreach. If you want a fuller picture of our direction, visit our mission and vision and our core values.
Common questions from new visitors
- You do not need to dress up or know anyone in advance to attend.
- Families can review nursery, children, and youth details on the Children & Youth page.
- If you are exploring Christianity, Who Is Jesus? is a good first step.
- If you want personal guidance before Sunday, the church office can help.
