There is not a dress code at Hope Baptist Tabernacle for members or guests. Our people wear a more traditional "Sunday" dress. We see it a privilege to worship the King of kings and therefore dress in honor of Him.

No. We don't invite you to Hope Baptist Tabernacle for your offering. In fact, we hope you will come so we can give you something. We hope you will find in this place a warm family spirit, truth from God's Word, and a place where you can grow in God's grace. Please don't feel any obligation to participate in the offering as a guest.
