Fall LeavesWelcome to Hopwood! We are a group of believers who live and serve our Lord together in the beautiful foothills of East Tennessee (and throughout the wide world!) We hope this site will be a great asset to help us build real community and to share with others what God is doing among us.

While you're here, listen to the audio from our worship services, read over the text of old sermons, check out pictures of Hopwoodians, and read entries from our senior minister's weblog. We're continually adding information designed to keep you in touch with the congregation.  

If you have any questions or comments about the website, please feel free to send them via the Contact Us form. If you're new to Hopwood, "Welcome!" We hope you visit us in person before long. God bless you.
