The Ark Church was birthed out of prayer to glorify God; to teach and uphold biblical truth; and to help people know, love and serve Jesus.
In February 2021, Lead Pastor Loren Bishop and his wife Jean were approached by another Hingham couple, Dan and Amy Hendy, to consider starting a church in Hingham. At that time, Loren was an Assistant Pastor at New Hope Chapel in Norwell, but he and Jean had already been feeling a stirring from God for three years, believing that He was beginning to prepare them for something new. So, the two couples committed to meet together weekly to pray, study God's Word, and seek where God was leading.
In July 2021, they believed that God was leading them to take the next step by inviting other people to join them in prayer. Over the weeks and months that followed, God began to open doors, stir hearts, and gather the close-knit community that would become The Ark Church.
The Ark Church was launched in October 2021 at Loren and Jean’s home, where they met for the first couple of months. God then provided the opportunity to meet at Ames Chapel on South Street. The Ark, and especially the Children’s Ministry, grew as the Lord added more young families to the church. In 2022 The Ark moved to Hingham High School, where the Sunday worship gatherings are held today.
It is also important to note that, along the way, a wonderful relationship has developed with South Shore Baptist Church. They have been supporters of The Ark Church through prayer, pastoral relationships and by allowing us to meet in their building for prayer on Thursday nights.
The story of The Ark Church is still being written, and we want you to be a part of it!
Join us every Sunday as we gather to worship together at 10am at Hingham High School. Childcare and Sunday School are provided for Nursery through 8th grade
