🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨

For 25 years, House of Hope has been a place where women encounter Jesus, find healing, and discover lasting transformation.

Today, we are excited to reveal both the theme of our 25th Anniversary Celebration and our keynote speaker!

THEME: FREEDOM

“Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” 2 Corinthians 3:17b

🎤 KEYNOTE SPEAKER: JOSHUA BROOME (bio below)

Joshua's powerful story of redemption and transformation is a testimony to the life-changing freedom found in Jesus Christ. His message perfectly reflects what House of Hope has been celebrating for the past 25 years—freedom from strongholds, freedom from the past, and freedom to walk in God's purpose.

🕕 6:00 PM
📍 DoubleTree by Hilton | Cedar Rapids

Stay tuned for more details, ticket information, and special announcements in the coming weeks.

Here's to 25 years of hope, transformation, and FREEDOM!

KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Joshua Broome is a bestselling author and international speaker whose powerful story of redemption has impacted audiences around the world. Once immersed in the adult-entertainment industry, Joshua encountered Jesus in the middle of his brokenness and discovered that no past is beyond the reach of God’s grace.

Today, he uses his testimony to declare a message every one needs to hear—no matter what you’ve done, and no matter what has been done to you, nothing can separate you from the life and purpose found in Jesus Christ. Through biblical truth and practical wisdom, Joshua equips others to overcome shame, pursue holiness, and step confidently into the identity God has called them to.

Joshua is the author of 7 Lies That Will Ruin Your Life, holds a degree in Christian Ministries from Liberty University, and serves as the Executive Director of Walk Worthy, a division of the American Association of Christian Counselors.

Joshua and his wife, Hope, have been married for ten years and live in Dallas, Texas with their four sons.

So thankful for Pastor Levi from Faith Bible Church for coming and sharing with our staff and residents this morning about prayer.

What a gift to be reminded that prayer is not about perfection or performance….it’s about relationship, praising God for who He is and confessing our need for Him.

Grateful for pastors and leaders in our community who point us back to Jesus. 💛

We’ve been praying, planning, and preparing… and we can finally share a big announcement on Monday, June 8!
