Missions Ministry at New Hope Baptist Church 
 
Welcome to the Missions Ministry of New Hope Baptist Church of Lake Wales (New Hope). We believe Jesus calls His Church to reach our city, our state, our nation, and the world with the gospel. Through prayer, giving, and hands-on involvement, we partner with ministries that share Christ’s love and serve others in meaningful, practical ways.
 
At New Hope, missions is more than financial support; it is a ministry of prayer, service, and obedience to God’s call. Our Missions Ministry exists to help our church family engage in gospel work locally, statewide, nationally, and globally.
 
Through this ministry, we strive to educate our church about missions, support missionaries and partner organizations, and provide opportunities to serve and give as God leads.
