HOPE Group
HOPE (Holy Orthodox Primary Education) is a ministry for little ones, ages 40 days - 4 years old, that introduces our youngest stewards to our Orthodox faith and teaches them in a fun and interactive way about the Saints, Feast days, the Bible, and hymns of our Church. We invite Moms and/or Yiayias to join us on Friday mornings every other week from 10 - 11 a.m. (unless otherwise noted) for snacks, songs, playtime, and a lesson with prayer. The theme for the 2025/26 year is God's Wonders! The first meeting will take place on Friday, September 12, 2025. See full calendar at the link below. 2025/26 registration materials will be announced this summer. There is a $10 fee for the entire year which will be used for arts and crafts.
Please join us! It's a great way for Moms to create friendships with others! Contact Pastoral Assistant, John Anton (janton@ascensiongoc.com) for further details and questions about this ministry.
2025/26 Registration will be posted late-summer
Note: We serve "fast-worthy” snacks since our meetings take place on Fridays. Although home fasting rules may be different, we encourage our children to begin learning about fast days, even from now. Fruits, veggies, crackers, and graham crackers are some good options! Please sign up below!
