Catalyst

Vision: “Developing leaders to engage, equip and empower students to fulfill their mission to God, family, Church, community and the world.”

Mission: We want you to have a “breakthrough” in your own life and understand the calling God has on your life so, in turn, you can help others learn to talk to, walk with, and to depend on God in their time of need or blessing. Our ministry here at New Hope teaches students from 6th grade to 12th grade.
