Hope Communication Tool  

We are excited to start using a communication tool for our congregation called Text In Church.  This tool will help us stay better connected as a church community through text messages, automated phone calls, and emails.

To make sure everything is working properly, there will be a TEST text message and phone call sent out on April 27, 2026 to all members who have a phone number on file. If you do not receive either a text or a call on that day, please reach out so we can update our records. You can email Chris with questionsat hopelutheran87@gmail.com or call the church office at (507) 872-6446.

Dear beloved church,

Much love and thanks for your outpouring of love and grace for me, my family and Bishop Dee when I was installed as your Synod Authorized Minister.

Looking back on our last eighteen months in ministry  together,  I continue to be thankful that the Lord has brought me to Hope and St. Paul’s!  My prayer is that God will continue to strengthen, sustain, and bless us into God’s will for our future and God’s glory.

I love you all,

Jenn
