History: Since the 1950s, Southern Baptist churches in Greater Cleveland have partnered in evangelism, missions, church planting, stewardship, Christian education, and benevolence.
Our Mission: Demonstrate our love for God by partnering to offer the people of Greater Cleveland hope through the grace and forgiveness of Jesus and genuine spiritual community through our churches.
“N.E.T.S.” Priorities: Jesus’ statement to His fishermen disciples, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men,” (Matthew 4:19; Mark 1:17; Luke 5:10) in the context of boats and nets can mean only one thing: My mission to save people will require working together just like you have to work together to bring in a net full of fish.
Just as every local church needs a clear process for growing disciples of Jesus in community, an association of like-minded churches needs a clear strategy for moving congregations towards greater gospel impact--together!  The Greater Cleveland Baptist Association (known as Cleveland Hope) exists to bring the hope of Christ to Cleveland and the world by pursuing these strategic priorities:
Networking Churches & ResourcesNo church stands alone! Cleveland Hope seeks to model church-to-church partnering through: joint local outreach & evangelism, short-term mission trips, pulpit-supply/team-preaching, people- & resource-sharing, collective equipping opportunities, etc. Visit our Events and Resources pages for more information.
Encouraging PastorsNewly-deployed church planter or seasoned local church shepherd, those caring for Christ’s flock need care too! Cleveland Hope resources a Pastor Encourager Team across greater Cleveland to: gather regularly to pray, maintain contact with and prayer support for pastors in their zones, foster pastor-to-pastor partnering, provide fellowship & refreshment opportunities for pastors, pastor spouses, and pastor families, etc. 
Training LeadersFrom theological education to coaching to the sharpening of specific ministry skills, Cleveland Hope provides (and partners with outside institutions & agencies to provide) church leaders with needed training for Kingdom impact as disciple-multipliers by for example: on-boarding pastors & key leaders to the SEND Multiplication Pipeline (NAMB), scholarships/tuition assistance to Ohio Theological Institute & other accredited seminaries, conference assistance, etc.
Sending TeamsApart from seeing souls harvested for Christ, nothing calls for greater celebration amongst a family of churches than partnering to send out teams with that goal in mind through: mercy ministries (disaster/hunger relief, etc.), planting/re-planting churches in Cleveland & beyond, engaging unreached peoples around the world (W. Africa, SE Asia, Cent. Asia, etc.)
