Portico started by sharing Jesus with our neighbors and quickly became a small community that shares life. We eat, celebrate, serve, and care for each other through worship, prayer and exploring God’s word. We want to provide a safe place for those who feel alone, live in fear, experience trials and/or questions, and especially those who want to know more about Jesus.
Our Mission is to restore the hope of the Gospel by valuing each person through authentic relationships and using scripture to illuminate and experience the hope of Jesus.

In 2023, the Lord answered our prayers and brought us Jeff and Leslie Hinkle. The Hinkle’s bring a life of experience, love, passion, and talents. They are a gift to this mission, and together our families formally launched Portico Mission of Hope
