Mount Hope United Methodist Church

Welcome to Mount Hope

Open Hearts. Open Minds. Open Doors.

Mount Hope United Methodist Church is a welcoming congregation at the corner of Mount Hope Avenue and Cedar Street in Lansing. We seek to be a crossroad leading all people to Christ through worship, prayer, friendship, learning, and practical service.

A church home for every crossroad of life

Some people arrive looking for a church family. Others come carrying grief, questions, or a desire to serve. Mount Hope makes room for all of that. You will find Scripture-centered preaching, congregational singing, prayer, and people who care enough to learn your name.

New here?

Come as you are, introduce yourself after worship, and let us help you find your next step.

Looking for community?

Classes, music, fellowship, and prayer groups create space to grow in faith and friendship.

Ready to serve?

We believe worship should lead to care for neighbors, students, and families across Lansing.

Faith that becomes care for the neighborhood

Mount Hope has long connected worship with practical care. Families can learn more about nursery, elementary, and youth opportunities on our Children & Youth page, while those interested in meals and student support can visit Breakfast, Dinner & Tutoring.
