Step 2: Find Hope in the list of churches, and connect

The Church Center app serves many churches, so you'll need to follow the in-app instructions to locate Hope Community Church.

You can let your phone use your location, or you can search manually by inputting "Andover KS." A list of area churches will pop up: choose Hope Community Church. (Look for our blue logo.)

From there, follow the app instructions to continue the connection process. This will include entering your cell phone number, and entering a verification code that will be sent to you.

Step 3: Welcome! Look around.

Once you're in the Hope app, you'll see this home screen. Explore all the icons and buttons to learn all the ways this app can help you connect! Here are three you might want to know about first.

A. This is your profile icon. (It will either have your initials or your picture.) From here, you can update your contact info -- and your family's. You'll also see any groups or registrations you've signed up for.

Scroll further down in your profile, look for "My giving," and you'll be able to access your giving records, set up new donations, and download statements. If you're currently giving to Hope through other methods, please visit this feature as soon as you can! We'll be phasing out other giving methods in the near future.

B. This yellow button will take you to a page where you can sign up for the Hope weekly newsletter, and other ministry news as well. You can also tell us whether or not you want to receive text messages from us. (This is primarily used for messaging individuals about groups or events they've already signed up for, but we also occasionally use it for the whole church body for weather cancellations, for example.)

C. The "Give" icon takes you to a form where you can easily set up a one-time gift, or a recurring gift.

Still have questions?

If you have questions about giving, please contact Kaycee Williams. Call the church office (858-9100) or email her.

If you have questions about other aspects of the app, ask any staff member. If they don't know the answers, they'll find someone who does!

We appreciate you taking the time to download and learn about our new app. Thanks!
