Welcome

New Hope United Methodist Church is a delightful, historic church founded in 1795 in the beautiful Pomaria countryside of Newberry County, South Carolina.

We share in the United Methodist Church's mission of making disciples of Christ for the transformation of the world by making disciples of Christ of ourselves, both individually and communally as the Body of Christ. In doing this, we see discipleship as actively following in the footsteps of Jesus. We are intentionally loving as Jesus loves, caring as Jesus cares, and serving as Jesus serves.

Announcements

  • New Year, New Church Directory

    The 2026 church directories are ready for pickup in the back of the church.  They are not labeled.  Please take a directory for you and/or your family member(s) and check your name off of the list.  If you are unable to pickup your directory and need one sent to you, please contact Gary Graham.

  • Bible Study

    Bible study will resume each Monday beginning on February 2 at 7PM in the fellowship hall (in person) and via Zoom.  The link is emailed each Monday.  February is the month of "love" with Valentine's Day at its center. The Old Testament book of Ruth is about love, faithful true love.  Ruth will be the subject of the Bible study.  Please let Melanie know if you plan to participate so that she can order the book being used for each participant.  Make plans to join us for our study of the "Book of Love", Old Testament style.  If you are not receiving the email or have any questions, please contact Pastor Jesse.

  • Knitting & Crochet Group

    If you're interested in learning to knit or crochet, please contact Mimi Rogers.  The group gathers as they are able and all skill levels are welcome.  It is never too late to join!  The group recently completed many beautiful blankets and pillows and donated them to Newberry Hospital to be distributed to patients and newborns.  The fellowship is great and donations are welcome!

  • Worship Service Time Change

    Beginning Sunday, November 2, 2025, the time for our morning worship service changed to 10AM with Sunday School beginning at 9AM. This change was made based on responses from the congregation on a preferred service time change.

  • Pomaria Food Bank

    We continue to collect items for the Pomaria Food Bank.  During the month of February, Children's Church will be collecting Peanut Butter and Jelly to be donated to help "spread the love."  Please consider picking up a few extra items when you're out doing your grocery shopping.  Our continued support of this ministry is greatly appreciated.  You may also drop your goods off in the donation box at the Pomaria Food Bank located at 110 Victoria Street in Pomaria behind Wilson's Grocery.
