Regular Sunday Parking
We are located in downtown Minneapolis. Our hospitality team will direct you where to park when you arrive. Additionally, signs with parking directions will be posted. Please refer to this map for regular Sunday Parking. In addition to our parking lots, many of the metered streets surrounding Hope are free on Sundays. Please refer to this map to find free street parking on Sundays.
Vikings Game Sundays
Due to our proximity to the U.S. Bank Stadium, during large events we also alter our parking scheme. On Sunday’s when the Minnesota Vikings play at home we have special event parking for both services.
1st Service (8:30 AM) – the parking lot next to our building on 7th street is not available, when you arrive pull up to the parking lot as usual, and a hospitality volunteer will give you a parking voucher for a ramp a few blocks away. Please refer to this map for more information.
2nd Service (10:30 AM) – the parking lot next to our building on 7th street is not available, and we do not have access to a ramp. Please refer to this map for more information & carpool with someone if you can!
Handicap Accessible Parking is available in the East lot (parking lot next to church building on corner of 7th and 11th).
What to Expect
A typical service at Hope Community Church – Downtown consists of worship through song, the reading of Scripture, a message, and communion. It lasts about 75 minutes. We welcome people to participate in whatever way they feel comfortable. In other words, you are perfectly fine just sitting and observing.
We invite you to come as you are! Our culture is very-laid back, people tend to dress casually. After service, we invite you downstairs for coffee, treats & a time to hangout & meet others. We hope you can make it!
Our sanctuary is wheelchair accessible. There is an elevator available just inside the 11th Ave entrance.
