Choose Hope
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
Join "The Lent Exchange"
Lent is a season of renewal—an opportunity to turn small sacrifices into lasting impact. As Martin Luther said, “God does not need your good works, but your neighbor does.”
By giving up something small—coffee, a meal out, or entertainment, you can bring hope to New Yorkers in need. Our prayer is that 500+ families will take part in this movement of sacrificial giving.
Will you join us? See below for six ways to exchange something small for something greater. Give once, or what it would total if you exchanged it weekly for six weeks.
In Christ alone, our hope is found!
Life can feel overwhelming at times, and in the busyness of our daily routines, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly brings us joy—living with purpose, serving others, and being part of something greater.
This Lenten season, we invite you to Choose Hope! It's a chance to step back, reflect, and find renewal through simple acts of prayer, service, and generosity. David Brooks, in The Second Mountain, writes, “The deepest joy comes when we focus not on ourselves, but on others—the people we serve and the lives we help change.” By choosing to give, pray, and serve, we can transform the lives of those in need and experience the profound joy of living with purpose!
