Iona-Hope is a community of people who are striving to follow Christ. We come from various places and are single, married, straight, gay, families of one and many, conservative, moderate and progressive. We worship God, address the needs of our neighbors, work for justice and try to bring God's healing presence to the world. We are loving, imperfect and hopeful.
