Dream: Genesis Conference 2022

Genesis Conference is coming up at the tail end of the week on May 19th and 20th at Northgate FMC in Batavia. With so much work going into conference, please pray with other believers in our area by praying daily with the focused prayers below, or you can sign up for the conference in-person prayer vigil. If you'd like to pray but don't plan to attend conference,

Prayer is one way we can support our pastors, lay ministers, and the wider Genesis Conference.

Saturday, May 14 - Day 16: Keep us healthy ahead of time

Sunday, May 15 - Day 17: Heal us as we gather for healing prayer

Monday, May 16 - Day 18: Re-connect us after being apart for so long.

Tuesday, May 17 - Day 19:  Speak to us through His Word, the messages, the worship, and the workshops.

Wednesday, May 18 - Day 20: Make His power and presence known as we gather

Thursday, May 19 - Day 21: Empower us and send us out.


Our city has so many opportunities available to connect and invest in our community. Check out the youth services, downtown events, and the weekly prayer meeting at Liberty Pole. The biking opportunities for Bike Week, and the weekly repair means spring truly is here.

Last Sunday we celebrated the dedication of a new little one in the congregation. We praise God for his life, and his parents, who are committed to raising him in the knowledge of the gospel.


Perspectives is a 15 lesson course that has equipped thousands of every day believers with greater vision, hope, and passion.  In Perspectives scripture, history, culture and strategy converge to reveal the unfolding of God's redemptive purposes. He is on a mission to bless the peoples of the earth and each of us are invited to join Him.  

We have just completed our eighth year in Rochester. We are thankful for the support of New Hope FMC for supporting this movement and the prayer team who have faithfully prayed for our students, instructors and coordinators.

We will soon begin planning a class for 2023.  Find out how God can use you to bless the world around you.  Check out Perspectives at http://www.perspectives.org.


Feel free to contact Chuck Vogt or you can always talk to any one of the growing number of Perspectives alumni here at New Hope.


Light + Life Magazine mentions, “The Free Methodist Church USA has a powerful story of women in ministry that includes both inspiring and challenging chapters. The story remains unfinished although there’s growing anticipation about exciting chapters to come.” We here at New Hope know how important it is to have women as part of our leadership.

A few months back, our Pastor Marissa had the opportunity to attend the Wesleyan Holiness Women’s Conference. Check out the rest of Light + Life’s blog post about what went down.


Over the last few weeks, we’ve been asking for information from all of you that will be the basis for the next sermon series. If you have any questions about faith or Christianity, just use the button below and drop Pastor Scott an email.
