Welcome to New Hope Baptist Church!

We want to take this opportunity to invite you to visit with us.  If you are looking for a church home, we would like for you to prayerfully consider New Hope.  It is important that you be in church on a regular basis somewhere, and the New Hope family would love for you to be with us.

As a Southern Baptist Church, we believe in the work of missionaries both at home and abroad.  We are commissioned to serve and share Christ throughout the world by giving of the resources God has so blessed us with through the Bartow Baptist Association, the Georgia Baptist and Southern Baptist Conventions.

We are praying for God's presence to make himself known to all that enter our doors. We want Jesus as our Savior and our Lord.

We are Seeking the Presence of God!

Our ministries range from preschoolers to senior adults.  A nursery is provided during our worship services. 

Music Ministry
Our adult sanctuary choir exalts the name of the Lord through a blend of music presentations - traditional, Southern Gospel, Brooklyn Tabernacle, to name a few.  Our music ministry is led by Randy Henson, Nancy Henson and their daughter Ashleigh Henderson.  Randy and Nancy have served the Lord in music ministry for over 30 years volunteering their gifts of music. 

Women's Ministry
We also have a very active women’s ministry.  The ladies have a monthly book club and special Bible studies with banquets and teas.

Youth Ministry
We provide interactive Bible studies (6:30 p.m.) on Wednesdays at The Potter's House, our Youth Center, in addition to in-depth Youth Bible Studies during Sunday School. Students experience hands-on missions and ministry opportunities, creative worship and other fun activities.

New Hope Baptist Church has a rich heritage.  Although no records were kept at that time, oral history points to the belief that an early church facility was built in the late 1700’s.  The most commonly accepted date of the church being constituted was in the early 1850’s.  We annually have special Homecoming services, Vacation Bible School, Revivals, special song services and a community Christmas Eve service.

Our present sanctuary was renovated in 2005.  Beneath our sanctuary is our nursery and children’s Sunday school classrooms.  The Potter’s House is a home the church purchased for various ministries.  New Hope’s youth and church library are housed there.  We are excited about A VISION for the future with an additional facility between the fellowship hall and Potter’s House.
