Rose Gaudino 1929 - 2025

Hope Christian Church - can trace its roots directly back to a small - humble porch gathering in New Windsor, NY over 50 years ago. Rose and a small group of believers were seeking - not more religion - but - more relationship with God. The Fire's Burning Prayer Group was born in 1971 - and would grow to become - Beautiful Gate Fellowship , Newburgh Christian Community, Hudson Valley Christian Church (our sister church) - and now HOPE Christian Church - a new planting in Jesus Christ. Rose, the last surviving founding member of that original group of believers was the Matriarch of our church today and we cherish and share memories and stories of her impact on our lives today and into the future!
