It’s time to Serve Fort Myers! Join your New Hope family Saturday, September 26, from 9am-noon as we head out into our community for a morning of serving our neighbors and partnering with local organizations. We’ll begin the morning together at 9:00 AM in Room 212 for a time of worship and prayer before heading out to our Serve Day locations. There are several opportunities to choose from, so everyone can find a way to get involved!
This month, New Hope is collecting diapers and wipes to assist single moms and families who are fostering, to provide for the children in their care.

Thank you for loving the vulnerable communities that children are raised in, from foster care to single-parent households.

THE FRAME FAMILY
Jesse and Cynthia Frame serve with New International and YouthHOPE, equipping and encouraging youth ministry leaders around the world. This year, they are celebrating the completion of the School of Youth Ministry Training program in Latin America—a significant milestone several years in the making!
During a recent trip to Ecuador, Jesse visited graduates who are now prepared to train and raise up additional youth workers through Bible colleges, local churches, missions schools, and indigenous tribal communities. Other graduates throughout Central America and the Caribbean are also making plans to continue this important work in their home countries.
With the Latin American program complete, YouthHOPE is beginning a new season of ministry in Europe. Their goals include building relationships with churches and ministry leaders, hosting training opportunities, and potentially establishing another School of Youth Ministry Training program. Please continue to pray for the Frame family as they enter this new phase of ministry and seek the right partners and open doors throughout Europe.
