Mission Statement
The purpose of Hopewell General Baptist Church is to practice the Great Commission (Mathew 28:18-20) through leading people to a life-changing faith in Christ and then teaching for understanding of God's Word and its application to lives. We will express loving care in our relationships with friends, relatives, associates and neighbors in our church and throughout our community. We will honor God through worship, prayer, generous giving, and consistent outreach, including home and foreign missionary interest. We anticipate increasing involvement and commitment to God and the church as we recognize and practice our individual and collective ministries

Worship
Our vision is to provide the kind of worship experience where God is glorified and his children edified. We envision worship that is genuinely spiritual and broadly participated in that takes place in a warm and friendly atmosphere. We envision our worship including uplifting activities such as joyful celebration and enthusiastic praise, contemporary as well as traditional singing, intercessory prayer, life related preaching, and other experiences that would lead to an honest expression of worship.

Education
Our vision for Christian Education is to take place in a well organized environment where an adequate staff of dedicated and enthusiastic teachers and officers are sufficiently trained and properly equipped to lead students in all age groups in the learning process using materials and methods that are interesting and relevant to the students. It is our vision to provide Christian Education through means such as various Bible studies, discipleship and leadership training, issue oriented/life related elective courses, and a church training program.

Evangelism
Our vision is to be evangelistic individually and congregationally. We envision being intentionally evangelistic in everything we do as a part of our Christian life while focusing on those within our spheres of influence who are unsaved, unchurched, or looking for a new church home. It is our vision to have individuals practicing "life style" evangelism and to congregationally implement outreach programs, activities, and ministries appropriate to meet the needs of our community.

Membership
We envision a numerically and spiritually growing membership. It is our vision to see membership grow to 400 with a large percentage of the members regularly attending and actively participating in the ministries of the church.

Facilities
It is our vision to have facilities appropriate for all the ministry needs of our church. We envision identifiable, attractive, and inviting facilities, that are accessible, spacious, comfortable, and convenient to all. Our vision is to expand and/or remodel existing facilities and to construct new facilities, such as a Christian Life Center, to accommodate the needs of a numerically, spiritually, and socially growing church.

Membership Involvement
We envision the active participation of 75% of all individuals regularly attending our church in some role of task with at least 25% of those involved in some Class II/outreach activities. It is our vision to see that every individual has the opportunity to identify, develop, and utilize their God given spiritual gifts. Our vision is to provide a proper framework for the cooperation, communication, and care of all workers within the church.

Staff
It is our vision to expand the staff according to ministry needs and appropriate to the size of the congregation. We envision ministering more effectively to special need areas such as youth ministries, through the addition of ministerial staff members.
