A Future & A Hope Ministries (AF&AH) was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in the state of Washington in 1990. Our vision is to partner with local churches to provide long-term pastoral care to individuals and families. We are committed to helping people identify their personal challenges and to find creative and healthy ways to mature. Personal appointments, group classes and the Cleansing Stream Seminar are tools used by AF&AH to aid in the healing and growth process. In addition, we hold occasional seminars on family living, personal discipleship and women's issues. People of all denominations feel at home within the AF&AH community.

What We Believe:

  • We believe each person has worth, no matter past, present or future issues in life.
  • We believe in God and in God's love for all people.
  • We believe that God speaks to each person in unique ways and each person deserves a chance to be heard.
  • We believe in the power of Community, the power of Grace and the power of Healing to bring each person to their full potential.
  • We believe that every person has a purpose and that everyone can realize that purpose through knowing and understanding Jesus.
  • We believe that there is a plan for this universe and that plan can be discovered through the Bible.

"I know the plans I have for you, plans to take care of you, not to abandon you, plans to give you A Future and A Hope" Jeremiah 29:11
