We want to show Jesus to kids and families so they grow to be like Him. Then, we want to equip them to go and tell others about Him.
We teach the youth of the South Bay about Jesus Christ in order to help transform their lives, find meaning for their existence, and provide hope for their future.
Young Adults is a vibrant ministry focused on helping those entering adulthood navigate successfully through college classes and early career choices. We aim to help 18-26 year olds grow an abiding relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church through bi-monthly gatherings.
Men of Hope exists to build strong men who stand firm in the faith. Through real relationships and fellowship environments, we help men grow in discipleship by learning from Jesus' teaching and life—living out what the proverb conveys of “iron sharpening iron.”
Women of Hope welcomes women of all ages and spiritual maturity. We are committed to prayer, Biblical teaching, and discipleship, so that the Word of God is applied to every area of our lives--our homes, our workplaces and our community.
Prayer Ministry is a place to seek God’s presence, intercede for others, and grow in the practice of prayer. Whether through scheduled gatherings, prayer chains, or one-on-one support, we unite in lifting up the needs of our church, community, and world—trusting in God’s power to heal, guide, and transform lives.
At Hope, we’re passionate about helping couples experience God’s grace in their marriage—whether they’re engaged, newly married, or seasoned in years. Through premarital counseling, marriage classes, and parenting support, we aim to strengthen families and reflect Christ’s love as Paul describes in Ephesians 5.
Local Outreach & Global Missions connects our church with God’s work beyond our walls—both in our own city and around the world.

What we believe about God, His Word, and the essentials of our faith.
God calls a young pastor named Ralph Moore and his wife Ruby to fill an abandoned church building-- and Hope Chapel is born.
Our congregation takes ownership of an abandoned bowling alley to establish a “light on the hill” in Hermosa Beach.
Ralph is called to start another church in Hawaii. Zac Nazarian becomes the senior pastor of Hope.
Our congregation celebrates its 50th anniversary, with 45 years in our reclaimed bowling alley, where our deep roots give us the strength to grow.
Today, Hope Chapel continues to thrive as a vibrant community in Hermosa Beach. Under the leadership of Zac Nazarian, we remain committed to pointing people to Jesus, making disciples, and planting new churches. Our mission carries forward with the same heart to serve, love, and shine as a light in our city.
