Sunday Schools: We have Sunday School for all ages. Children and youth meet weekly for Sunday School. There are three different adult classes as well. The Golden Rule class is a lecture-style class. Cross Talk is a devotion and discussion class, and the Word Search Class does different studies and many are video and discussion-based.
CheerGivers: CheerGivers are a caring group of people who want to connect the love of God with folk who are unable to come to Milford Hills UMC worship for whatever reason. They meet every other Thursday at 10:30 in the church library. They share information, sign cards, make phone calls to sick and shut-ins, and form teams to visit folks. They also take Holy Communion 3 or 4 times a year to those who wish to have it. They take cupcakes to shut-ins who have a birthday. Celebrating birthdays is one of the perks of being a CheerGiver, second only to the blessings received from visiting with dear friends who are not able to worship physically at MHUMC. They invite any to join them in spreading cheer in the name of Jesus.
Milford Bears: Milford Bear became a part of Milford Hills in 1998. Michael Kurtz
was our pastor. He got the idea from reading another church’s newsletter and wondered if we could do the same thing here. Milford Bear sits in the pew. He is passed around for folks to hug and pass along. Whenever someone wants to send those hugs and prayers to a person in need of love, encouragement, prayers, or even celebration, Milford is given away in the name of Jesus and MHUMC. He has been given away to many and mailed to faraway places. He has entertained many a child sitting in the church pew. Milford Bear has a heart for God and for people. Friendly Neighborhood Club: This is a group of people in our surrounding neighborhood who join together for a pot-luck lunch and a program. It is open to everyone and anyone who wants to join on the second Monday of every month, except during the summer. Knit & Nibbles: On Tuesdays, several women meet in the library to make prayer shawls. They knit and crochet and use some yarn that has been donated for this project. They also bring their own snacks to nibble on. These prayer shawls are then given to people and friends of the congregation who are in need of extra prayer. United Methodist Women: The UMW membership is open to all women. UMW’s focus is mission work for women, children, and youth. UMW meets monthly in small groups, called circles. The Circle of LIGHT meets at 2:00 pm on the 1st Tuesday. The ACT Circle meets on the 2nd Tuesday at 10:00 am. Mothers & Others meets on the 2nd Thursday at 6:30 pm. Locations vary. For more information please contact the church office.
Milford Hills UMC is a very active congregation. We have many opportunities for all ages to grow in their spiritual lives through fellowship, prayer, and learning.
