Assessment

HOPE Church is a house church network operating across the DC Metro area with corporate worship in Clarksville, MD. Co-led by Jason Choi and Pastor Q. Friday house church model is unusual. Not a traditional College Park campus church. Alternatively, Hope Lutheran Church (hopecp.org) is physically in College Park at 4201 Guilford Dr. Needs clarification on which entity is intended.

Enrichment Notes

CRITICAL: location mismatch (Clarksville MD vs College Park MD) and denomination mismatch (ECO Presbyterian vs non-denominational per record). ECO permits women's ordination unlike EPC/PCA.
