High School Ministry at Hope is for students in grades 10-12. HSM exists for high school students to know the love of Jesus.
We create spaces and opportunities where students can build life-long friendships, encounter Christ together, and grow as spiritual leaders.
2020 Mission Jamaica
Looking for the HSM Jamaica mission trip? Look no further! Jamaica 2018 blew past our expectations and left its mark on our students. We expect much quicker registration for June 2020 and an even bigger waiting list. Sign up soon!
Registration can be found HERE.
Adults wishing to lead or participate in the trip can sign-up here. The number of leader spots will be determined after the student registration closes.

At this time, students are limited to five sign-up slots. You may check back later to see if more slots become available. Please be sure that all items are non-perishable (no refrigeration) and contain peanut-free ingredients (including no peanut butter).

MEET OUR STAFF
KRISTIAN EIKEVIK
Kristian says HSM is the “best job ever.” He is fueled by people instead of coffee. He insists that teenagers, golden retrievers, loyal friends and toothbrushes are God’s best gifts to mankind. His single-mindedness means he can usually be found moving quickly, listening closely, talking too much about Jesus, and trying to remember what he was just doing.
ASHTON OLIVEIRA
Director of HSM
(701) 235-6629, x247
(701) 235-6629, x247
Ashton is new to Fargo, originally hailing from the St. Croix Valley of Minnesota. He brings an abundance of leadership experience to HSM, loves a challenge of any sort, and brims with passion for God. If you have not met him, look for a 6’4” flannel-wearing twenty-something strolling around Hope with a grin on his face and fire in his heart.
TERRI DIERS
Student Ministry
Administrative Assistant
(701) 235-6629, x277
Terri is the real brains behind Hope’s student programs. You can expect to find her planning events, crunching numbers, singing hymns, or herding us like cats. She handles finances, registrations, events, strategy and all the points of vision that get missed.
