  Upcoming Hope Events 

Joint Worship on Memorial Day Weekend - 3-May-2012
As with last Memorial Day weekend, Hope UMC will be part of an ecumenical worship service.  The service will be held on Sunday, May 27th, at 9:00 a.m. at Chester Park UMC.  The service will include people from Hope, Chester Park, Hillside, Pilgrim Congregational and the United Baptist Christian Church.  This is a wonderful opportunity to share worship with others in Duluth and to visit Chester Park UMC before it merges with First UMC in June.  A joint choir (anyone who would like can participate!) will assemble at 815a to practice and the music can be gotten from our choir director.  There are a number of steps at Chester Park so there is not full accessibility. Please join us in celebrating worship as a larger faith community!   
Year-End Celebration & Healthy Living Fair! - 3-May-2012
On Sunday, May 20th all of Hope’s faith community and friends are invited to celebrate spring and the end of the regular Sunday school program!  This celebration is intergenerational, and this year we are adding an event especially for those who are looking to try something new in the area of healthy living.  After the lunch provided for everyone, there will be games, including a cake walk, in the Fellowship Hall. Upstairs in the Mathison Room and various locations there will be a Healthy Living Fair!  Not only will there be informational materials about how to live a healthy life as we age but there will be health demonstrations.  One of those demonstrations will be a chance to try energy massage and we are working on a demonstration of chair yoga as well where one sits on a chair and still gets the benefits of yoga.  More ways to learn are being added and it should be interesting and fun. So, children of all ages plan to invite your friends, stay for lunch and then play games and/or learn about healthy living on May 20th!                                
Book and Plant Sale - 13-Apr-2012
Mark Your Calendars! On Saturday, May 19th from 8a to noon Hope will be holding a fundraising plant and book sale! This celebration of spring will have plants ready for the garden and books ready to take to the cabin for summer reading. Proceeds from the sale will be used for landscape upkeep and Imagine No Malaria. If you would like to donate books you can bring them any time to the church office. Those left over will be part of the sale in October. If you would like to donate plants please bring them to church on Friday, May 18th by 3pm. Plants must be in some kind of container and be marked with the name of the plant on it. Don’t miss this great way to celebrate spring!  
  Worship Service - Sunday 10:00 am 

    Good worship is one of the things people of Hope find most important in their lives.
    We gather as a faith community to experience the grace of God through scripture and prayer.
    Most Sundays, the music is led by the choir and organ.

    Different ensembles and musical groups periodically enrich our worship experience.
    A contemporary service, "Sounds of Hope," is typically held the third Sunday of each month.

    Nursery is available during the service for the younger children.
    During the school year, pre-schoolers thru 6th graders are invited to Sunday School classes following the Children's Time in our worship.

    Community celebration with refreshments follows the service in the Fellowship Hall.

       Join us for our 10:00 a.m.  Service!

    Hope United Methodist Church, located at 301 West Saint Marie Street, Duluth is a community of believers.

    We completed the addition of an elevator which made our building handicapped accessible in the Spring of 2004.

    During the construction we also added handicapped restrooms next to our Fellowship Hall. 
    The cross on our roof is now illuminated. We hope that it will be a beacon to all passing by the corner of Carver Avenue and West Saint Marie Street.

    Hope UMC is adjacent to the University of Minnesota-Duluth campus and nearby The College of Saint Scholastica, making it convenient for students at both institutions.
