Our Story

Hope began meeting for worship in March of 2008, and became a self-governing church in July of 2010. We started out as a small church plant of Westminster Reformed Presbyterian Church in Suffolk, Virginia meeting in the local middle school. Then after several years worshiping in a local YMCA, by God’s grace, we were able to purchase our own building here in Smithfield where we currently worship each and every Sunday. We praise God that the church building is used almost every day of the week for small groups, bible studies, fellowship events, and various ministry activities.


Vision & Mission

OUR VISION is to be a loving and caring church committed to the glory of God, living in the joy and hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.


OUR MISSION is to exalt His name, equip His people, encourage His children, and expand His kingdom. 


What We Believe

As a member of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), we prioritize faithfulness to the Scriptures, adherence to the Reformed tradition, and obedience to the Great Commission. This means that God’s Word is our highest authority, governing our life and doctrine. We also lean heavily upon our rich tradition flowing from the Protestant Reformation. Both God’s Word and our tradition propel us in our obedience to Jesus’ Commission to share his message of good news and hope to the nations.
