Part Of The Vineyard Movement
Hope Vineyard is part of Vineyard USA, a movement of more than 500 churches across the United States committed to the message and practice of the kingdom of God. Vineyard churches share a commitment to historic Christian faith, the authority of Scripture, the presence and work of the Holy Spirit, compassionate ministry, and culturally relevant mission.
Each Vineyard church serves its local community in its own context while remaining connected to a larger family of churches. At Hope Vineyard, this means bringing the Vineyard’s shared beliefs and values into the life of our church and the greater St. Louis community.
KINGDOM THEOLOGY AND PRACTICE
We understand the kingdom of God as a central theme of Scripture and seek to participate in what God is doing through both our words and actions.
EXPERIENCING GOD
We believe God desires to be known and experienced. We welcome the presence of the Holy Spirit and seek to respond to God with attentiveness, worship, and obedience.
Jesus reconciles people to God and to one another. We seek to become a diverse community that crosses barriers and participates in God’s work of healing and reconciliation.
RECONCILING COMMUNITY
CULTURALLY RELEVANT MISSION
We communicate and demonstrate the good news of Jesus in ways that are faithful to Scripture and meaningful within the communities we serve.
COMPASSIONATE MINISTRY
We follow Jesus by serving people with mercy and compassion, especially those who are poor, hurting, excluded, or in need.
