How it all started...
The story of The City of Hope Worship Center is a testimony of God’s faithfulness, timing, and grace. What began as a burden in the heart of Pastor Marcus Tolliver soon grew into a movement of restoration, transformation, and radical faith.
In a season marked by fear, uncertainty and brokenness, Pastor Tolliver received a divine mandate: to build a church where hope lives, healing flows, and people can become whole again. With nothing but a vision from God, a heart for people, and an unshakable faith, he stepped out and planted The City of Hope Worship Center.
From humble beginnings—gathering virtually with a huge vision for more—God began to breathe on the vision. Week by week, lives were changed, souls were saved, and a church began to rise. Not just a building, but a community. A family. A safe place for the lost, the weary, the overlooked, and the called.
Today, The City of Hope is more than a church—it’s a movement. A beacon for those seeking refuge. A light for those walking through darkness. And a reminder that no matter what you’ve been through, God still has a plan for your life.
This is a church built on prayer, sustained by faith, and propelled by a vision of hope. And the best part? We’re just getting started.

Expanding the vision...
From a Local Church to a Global Movement of Hope
At The City of Hope Worship Center, we believe that vision doesn’t stand still—it grows, stretches, and reaches farther than we ever imagined. What started as a small gathering with a big dream has now become a launching pad for something greater.
God didn’t call us to build a church just for Sunday mornings. He called us to build a city of hope—a movement that reaches the streets, speaks to the heart of culture, and brings restoration to generations.
As we look to the future, we’re committed to:
We’re not building for where we are—we’re building for where God is taking us. And we invite you to partner with us as we stretch our faith, enlarge our territory, and expand the vision.
Hope has no limits—and neither do we.
