There’s No Party Like a Jesus Party Sermon Series
All too often people associate going to church and following Jesus as a boring, uneventful and watered down way to do life. That couldn’t be further from the truth! Join us as we continue our yearly theme A Church After God’s Own Heart, and take a look at the joy that comes from following Jesus. There’s no party like a Jesus party!

What’s Happening at Hope Local Panora?
Hope Local Panora offers a weekly “tot spot” for our littlest Hopesters as well as a once-a-month HopeKids Wednesdays experience for students in kindergarten-grade 5. During the summer, we offer Vacation Bible School locally in conjunction with our friends in West Des Moines. We also have women’s and men’s groups for study and fellowship, and a 50+ Ministry is in development! Hope also has many online opportunities including Alpha and Bible studies to be done as a group or as self-paced studies. There truly is something for everyone!
HopeKids Wednesdays
Hope Local Panora is seeking to reach the community of Panora by offering a once-a-month after-school faith experience for kids called HopeKids Wednesdays. Based on the outstanding HopeKids West Des Moines curriculum, your kids will grow in their knowledge of Jesus with their friends from school. Join us for HopeKids Wednesdays on the first Wednesday of the month during the school year at Panora Elementary at 3:00 pm.
