By December 2026, we hope to see:

+ 200 people through our culture and connection class, Discover Downtown Hope.

+ 200 covenant members who have gone through Discover Downtown Hope and a Movement group, who are consistently giving and serving.

+ 9 discipleship practices exercised as a family of faith - we will practice prayer, giving, serving, fellowship, solitude, fasting, observing the sabbath, reading the Word, and witnessing by the grace of God.

+ 255 West St expansion vision shared, funded and a start date planned

In 2035, by the grace of God, we will say of Downtown Hope:

+ Movement after Jesus is our greatest passion, our gospel transformation is evident and we never stop growing.

+ Our movement is characterized by boldness, responding to the Great Commission through kind, persistent invitation.

+ Our family of faith knows how to have fun together. We’ve made memories and continue to look forward to gathering together in church, at the table, around the city, and in our homes.

+ The doors of our House are always open – we’ve filled the space with ceaseless prayer, baptisms, worship, discipleship, and creative expressions of the eternal love of our Father.

+ Out of overflow and in response to the call of the Spirit, we’ve grown into a collective of neighborhood gatherings across Annapolis and beyond—multiplying communities of worship, discipleship, and mission.

+ We’ve invested in and equipped the Next Generation, rooted in Jesus and ready to join His mission wherever He leads.

+ We’ve trained and sent hundreds of everyday leaders, equipping ordinary believers to step into their gifts and lead with humility, wisdom, and Spirit-empowered boldness.

+ We’ve become a people of radical generosity, and our sacrificial, cheerful, and faithful giving has made a measurable impact in our city.

+ We don’t work alone, but have partnered with neighboring churches, gospel-centered organizations, missionaries, schools, and community leaders to saturate the city, surrounding areas and unreached people groups with the gospel.

+ Together we are living into the dream of a City of Hope—where worship rises, justice and mercy flourish, diverse communities are reconciled, and the reign of King Jesus is seen and celebrated.
