Community & Mission
New Hope has long been a place where faith meets action and love takes tangible form. Rooted in Christ’s compassion and open to all, we have spent decades serving our community by offering belonging, encouragement, and hope to those who need it most. Our calling is simple yet profound: to serve, uplift, and bring hope to the marginalized, reflecting God’s care through every act of kindness and service.
Community Garden/Food Distribution
Food Distribution
Wednesdays
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Hunger affects more than 330,000 people in Orange County—but together, we are making a difference.
Through New Hope’s food distribution program, we’ve provided over 100,000 meals, offering not just nourishment, but hope and the reminder that no one is alone.
Our community garden grows more than fresh produce—it grows connection, resilience, and care. What we harvest is shared with families in our church and beyond.
We’re not just feeding people—we’re building a compassionate community. Join us in this mission of hope and transformation.
Health & Wellness Ministry
At New Hope, our commitment to the health and well-being of our congregation and community is unwavering. Our ministry leaders, who are dedicated health care professionals, are passionately devoting their time and expertise to ensure that New Hope thrives with strength, energy, and resilience.
Collaborative Efforts
In a powerful alliance with UC Irvine School of Medicine’s PRIME LEAD-ABC program and six other Black churches in Orange County that form the Health Equity for African Americans League (HEAAL), we are committed to delivering impactful, timely, and relevant health information. These collaborations amplifies our capability to serve and empowers our community to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Together, we are building a robust foundation of health education and resources, ensuring that every member of our community is equipped with the knowledge and tools to navigate their health journey confidently. Our collective efforts are a testament to our belief that a healthy community is a strong community, and we are devoted to being the catalyst for this positive transformation.
Community Workshops
We host community workshops ranging from legal clinics to financial literacy to educate, empower, and equip individuals with practical tools for everyday life. By sharing knowledge and creating space for connection, we strengthen our community and help people thrive spiritually, emotionally, and practically.
Global Impact
Igniting “New Hope” in Kenya
In the 2024, our New Hope ambassadors traveled to Kenya with Tumaini International, carrying compassion and solidarity across continents. Our documentary, No Longer Forgotten, captures these powerful moments, not just as a film, but as a call to reflect on the values of faith, health, and shared humanity. It reminds us that connection knows no borders and that we are called to uplift one another. Together, we don’t just witness hope, we live it.
New Hope family and friends raised $9,000 for clean water!
In partnership with Tumaini International, New Hope provided the resources to build the Kisaani Water Tower. More than 6,000 people in four villages now benefit from a reliable and clean water source.
This improvement has contributed to enhanced hygiene and health outcomes within the community. Residents have expressed sincere gratitude for the project’s timely completion and quality, recognizing it as a pivotal development that has positively altered their daily routines.
