Harvest Party Fun
Copper Hill Church held its annual Harvest Party and Hayride on Oct. 20. The wagon was full, the kids were a little loud – meaning they were having fun. The day was a little drizzly but that just meant we snuggled under blankets and umbrellas. Thanks to the Griffins who arranged for the hayride and…
Celebrating Back to Church Sunday
Whew! It’s been a busy summer. Of course, most of the things I chose to do I would do again, but I am always wishing for a slower pace. It seems like summer goes so fast and we try to cram in so much. Some things are bound to get neglected in the rush,…

Holiday Bazaar a fun social event too

Copper Hill Church to hold National Back to Church Sunday events
This picture from our church summer picnic is a happy reminder for all of us of the good times we enjoyed during sunny summer days. Vacations with family, trips to the mountains, the beach, the fair or the theme park all contribute to wonderful summer memories. But if you’re like me, you welcome the fall days when the evening air…
Fathers’ Day/ Children’s Sunday participation high
Copper Hill Church held an unusual service on Father’s Day. Pastor Kelvin had suggested that the day also be a children’s Sunday. The children would bring a special song and also the children and youth of our church would fill as many volunteer positions that day as possible. It was a huge success. …
Palm Sunday a Highlight
During the winter months, Pastor Kelvin held a six session confirmation class with three students. The sixth graders studied basic beliefs of the Christian church, learned about the liturgies they participate in from week to week, and discovered more about their local United Methodist Church here at Copper Hill. Pastor Kelvin asked the three to…
