Fresh Expressions
“Fresh Expressions are new forms of church that allow us to reach new people, in new places, in new ways.”
At New Hope Church, we believe that church doesn’t have to start with a building. Through Fresh Expressions, we live out our “Go Multiply” mission by forming spiritual communities in ordinary, everyday places.
Fresh Expressions are designed for people who may not feel comfortable in a traditional worship setting. They’re open, relational, and rooted in the Gospel—yet flexible enough to happen on a walk, over a run, or through shared life.
These expressions of faith aren’t just outreach events—they’re real communities of discipleship, prayer, and spiritual growth. Everyone is welcome, including those who are skeptical, searching, or unsure about faith.
If you’re interested in connecting with any of these incredible groups, contact Rev. Alan Howe at (813) 689-4161 (office), (315) 415-3567 (mobile), or alan@findnewhope.com—unless otherwise noted below.
Runner’s Church
Saturday mornings at 7:00 AM – Campo YMCA Parking Lot (behind the baseball dugout)
Whether you’re a runner, walker, or just curious, this is a space for prayer, reflection, and movement. We gather briefly for a spiritual word, then run or walk Nature’s Way as a community.

Meet & Walk
Tuesdays at 9:30 AM – Life Center Gym
A midweek moment to move and reflect. We begin with a short devotion and then walk together indoors in the A/C. A great way to connect with others and with God while getting your steps in.
