First Hope Bank, A National Banking Association
 
 
History: 

The First Hope Bank, while enthusiastically reaching for the future, is mindful of its heritage, which abounds in the Village of Hope, New Jersey. Located 55 miles northwest of New York City, just off Interstate 80 at Exit #12, Hope was settled in 1769 by Moravians, who remained until 1808. The Moravians, a Protestant Group that believed in spreading the word of Christianity throughout the world, developed the Town of Hope as part of this ministry. The focal point of Moravian life was its Church, or Gemeinhaus. It is this building which First Hope Bank occupies today. Its cornerstone was laid April 1, 1781, by Bishop J. F. Riechel of Saxony, Germany, who was visiting Moravian settlements in North America. Witnessing Bishop Riechel's service were 55 citizens of the Town. The Bishop charged the crowd to cause the building and themselves to be ... "a candlestick with a burning that shines a light for this part of the Country ... as it's .. a calamitous time being the sixth year of unhappy war with Great Britain and this Continent." The Bank continues to practice Bishop Riechel's charge as it embraces new and improved techniques of service for an ever increasing group of customers. The Bank's symbol, a many point star, reminds us all of the Moravians' courage in overcoming immense obstacles and adversities in the construction of sturdy buildings for future generations to use.
