KIC Thanksgiving Party

Kids in Christ (2nd-5th Graders) met after school on Wed. Nov. 18 for a Thanksgiving party. They enjoyed snacks of pilgrim hat and turkey cookies and popcorn. They had a Thanksgiving themed scavenger hunt in which they had to find items such as hedge apples, turkeys, corn, and pictures of the Mayflower. They learned some great new songs and sang some familiar favorites. They cut out their handprints to make turkey placemats for their Thanksgiving tables and ended the afternoon with a lesson on prayer and giving thanks to God.

Harvest Dinner

Homer UMC family and friends enjoyed good food, good fellowship and good fun at the harvest dinner and silent auction hosted by the Kum Joy Nus women's group today. The proceeds from the event will help fund the group's mission and outreach projects throughout the year. Even though it was a Kum Joy Nus project, many others in the HUMC family pitched in to help make it successful. Many thanks for a church that worships and serves together.

Trunk or Treat Party

HUMC participated in Homer's first Trunk or Treat party at the village hall parking lot on Sat. Oct. 31. There were around 30 decorated cars & vans, a costume contest, hay rides, bonfire, a DJ, and lots of treats. HUMC set up a fishing booth so that trick or treaters were able to "catch" their candy treats. A great time was had by all at the family friendly event.
