Booklet Extras:
In the 1960s, a large cinderblock building was erected on a vacant lot on P.C.H. at Artesia. Many of the neighbors surmised that it might be a church building, but it turned out to be a bowling alley instead.
The "Beach Bowl" rested upon a series of columns to accommodate parking underneath. But when thousands of 16-pound balls were tossed across the floor (simultaneously and continuously, day-in and day-out, seven days a week, year after year after year, etc...), the columns proved to be a weak excuse for structural support. In a very short time, the bowling alley folded due to poor business.
In the 1970s, the vacant building became an eyesore in shambles. The new owner wanted to build a health club, but the city wouldn't allow him the necessary permits. So he intended to let it just sit and rot until Hermosa Beach let him "do his own thing," so to speak. Meanwhile, Pastor Ralph Moore began negotiating with the owner to sell it to his church. Through a series of miracles, God got the building, and the people called Hope Chapel began to grow....
In the 1980s, Ralph set out to pioneer a church in Hawaii and handed the reigns over to Pastor Zac Nazarian. Under Zac, Hope began a transformation called, "Called to Grow."
In the 1990s, Hope acquired the Lucky's Supermarket next door to the north and an office building to the south. Moving the administrative offices to the southern building allowed for a desperately needed expansion of the Children's Church.
In the year 2000... The people called Hope Chapel are a work-in-progress, and our history is still being written. How the story ends will depend on our obedience to God and how we respond to His call in our lives. Then, and only then, will the adventure continue....
