Hope Family Church: Washington

Welcome to Hope Family Church: Washington (Oxclose Church)

We are a growing church with a heart to reach out to our local communities. We are absolutely convinced that Jesus is good news for everyone. We are a family that offers a big welcome, a safe space to encounter Jesus, connect with the Father who loves us, and experience His Holy Spirit. ​​Our vision is to see the transformation of the communities that we are rooted in by enabling people to experience the love of God, understand who God says they are, and shape their lives around Jesus. As a church family, we base our life together around three core values: being family for everyone, sharing hope, and following Jesus.  We'd love to see you here with us.
