Local Impact

          New Hope is working with others to make a difference in our community.
          Here are some of the ways God is at work:



New Hope was privileged to organize and host this year’s Dauphin County Faith Summit. The Summit was created to connect churches to people in need and was attended by over 100 ministry and community leaders, to include our county’s president judge, Todd Hoover, Commissioner George Hartwick, Human Services Director Peter Vriens, and Sandra Moore, an advocate for faith-based initiatives from Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court. Government leaders spoke to the needs they see in our communities and provided specific opportunities for churches to be involved in meeting those needs. And representatives from ministries were challenged to look for opportunities to work with each other to better serve hurting kids, adults, and families.

The Salvation Army works with New Hope Church to provide a number of programs to our community. Besides collaborating with New Hope's Get Up! Get Active! fitness program, The Salvation Army provides curriculum, training, and financial resources for summer mentoring programs and works with New Hope to provide recovery ministries.



The Get Up! Get Active! after school fitness program was created by New Hope to combat childhood obesity and to bring awareness of God's care and character to build esteem for kids who might be struggling emotionally. It's an active collaboration of Central Dauphin School District, Messiah College, Highmark, Inc., and, most recently, The Salvation Army. Thanks to a generous grant, we'll be expanding and enhancing Get Up! Get Active! programs in coming months!

Construction has begun on New Hope’s new Community Garden!  Plots are available now and additional features will be added soon. A number of people and families will be growing produce in the garden, but we still have space for traditional or organic gardening and some specialty plots and resources if you’re interested in a new, more efficient method of farming called ‘square foot gardening.’ Contact New Hope’s offices with questions and/or to reserve your plot. We ask only that you provide seeds, some nurturing, and some donations of produce for our community and sister ministries like Harrisburg Brethren in Christ’s food pantry.
