Passing of Don Thompson. Our prayers are with the family of Don Thompson who passed away on Sunday the 20th of July at the age of 92. Don and his wife Ruth (who went to be with Jesus just last year) were faithful, long time members of NewHope. A Thanksgiving Service will be held at NewHope on Thursday the 31st of July at 2pm. 

Passing of Maria Smith. Maria Smith went to be with Jesus on Tuesday the 15th of July. Maria and her husband Graeme were an integral part of this church in the past, and Graeme was an associate pastor here for a season. Many here at NewHope will fondly remember Graeme and Maria and their family. Our love and prayers are with Denise, Andrea, David, Bronwyn, Narelle and their families.
