New Hope Christian Fellowship, based in Honolulu, Hawaii, is a chartered church of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel. Started by Pastor Wayne Cordeiro in 1996, New Hope has 14,500 attendees weekly with five locations on Oahu and more than 100 affiliate churches worldwide. New Hope International is the leadership training and church planting arm of New Hope. ==History of New Hope== Pastor Wayne Cordeiro (born October 20, 1952 in Fort Belvoir, Virginia) and his wife Anna moved from Oregon to Hilo, Hawaii in 1983 and started a church in the Waiakea Villas area. It then moved to the Holo Women's Club and then to the Hilo Boy's and Girl's Club. In 1990, the "Gathering Place" facility was built and the church grew to 2000. In September 1995, Cordeiro and Anna moved to Honolulu, Hawaii to start New Hope. From 1996 to 2012 the church met in the auditorium of Farrington High School in the Kalihi neighborhood of Honolulu. Since 2013 the New Hope Ministry Center has been located at 290 Sand Island Access Road in Honolulu. Since its inception, New Hope has grown to over 124 churches in the Pacific Rim and beyond, including Las Vegas, Seattle, Simi Valley, Japan, Myanmar and Australia. The Honolulu Star-Bulletin described New Hope as "a local personification of the nationwide phenomenon of mega-churches and the mushrooming of evangelical and pentecostal Christianity." According to Cordeiro, "God said to me, 'Build big people, not a big church.'〔 New Hope Christian College, formerly Eugene Bible College, is affiliated with the church and is located in Eugene, Oregon. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Hope Christian Fellowship」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
