New Hope Chapel is excited to have Emily Colson as our guest speaker this weekend for Mother's Day. Invite your family and friends to this service as they are sure to be moved by her message of love and hope.

Emily Colson is a popular speaker, and author of the award winning book, Dancing with Max. Emily speaks in churches and organizations nationwide, and has appeared on numerous media outlets including Focus on the Family, the Huckabee Show, and Hallmark's Home & Family. In her book Dancing with Max Emily and her father, Chuck Colson, shared the struggle and beauty of life with Max, Emily's 23 year-old son with autism. The book has recently been awarded "Book of the Year" by the Autism Society. Through her powerful message of the sanctity of life, Emily has inspired many to persevere through their own challenges and see the gifts. Emily has been a single mother for most of Max's 23 years, with hard fought lessons in faith, life, love and a whole lot of laughter. Emily and Max live on the coast of New England where they can often be found dancing.
