What To Expect at hppc

You can expect for our services to be worship filled and Spirit led. It is not our goal to be entertaining, but life changing. Our passion is to preach from the Bible. We feel that if you walk out of one of our services without a greater knowledge of the Bible, then we failed. See a list of our core beliefs below.

We pride ourselves on being a friendly church that is welcoming to visitors. We don’t mind one bit if you come in casual clothes. When you come, expect to receive a smile and a “Welcome” bag.

Beyond your visit, we offer ministries so that you and your family can connect with other people, learn more about the Bible, and serve in our community. See a list of our Ministries below.

Ministries

higher purpose kids

During Sunday’s service, the children 4-11 are invited to join our Children’s Ministry for interactive games, group activities, and Biblical teaching.

Joy Fellowship

Joy Fellowship is HPPC’s Ladies Ministry. Every other month, the Ladies gather for food, fellowship and a devotional designed to encourage women.

Prayer Ministry

At HPPC, we take prayer very seriously. Every Monday at 7PM we gather together to pray on the behalf of the church. We also hold a 12-hour prayer chain once a month.

Man-Up Ministry

On the off months for Joy Fellowship, the men of HPPC come together to eat breakfast or have a coffee night. This time is spent encouraging each other to MAN-UP by leading their homes in the ways of God.

Discover Purpose

At 10AM on Sundays, we hold a special course designed to connect you with the ministry team, explain the vision of the church, and teach our core-doctrinal beliefs. Every participant receives a Discover Purpose booklet, HPPC t-shirt and a HPPC coffee mug. Graduate by attending all 12 lessons.

Food Bank

We partner with House of Hope to deliver non-perishable food items and toiletries to the needy in Martin and St. Lucie Count. Every Sunday our members bring supplies to be donate to the bank. Our higher purpose is to assist people with their spiritual and physical needs.

Beliefs

About the Bible

The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living. (See II Timothy 3:15-17.)

About God

There is one God, who has revealed Himself in the New Testament as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ, and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man. (See Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 3:16.)

About Sin and Salvation

Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (See Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9.)

About the Gospel

The saving gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel (II Thessalonians 1:8; I Peter 4:17) by repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ (burial), and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance (resurrection). (See I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 2:4, 37-39; Romans 6:3-4.)

About Christian Living

As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today. (See Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10.)

About the Future

Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death. (See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)
