About HUMC
We at Hibernia United Methodist Church are a warm and accepting family church with a rich history and future. We are blessed with all ages, shapes and sizes. Here are some of the ministries which are helping us to fulfill our mission "to know Christ, to enjoy Him and to make Him known."

Musical Groups
Hibernia has a long history of excellent music and musicians. Our musical style is a cross between gospel, folk and contemporary. Fran Newlin, our organist and choir director, directs the senior choir which practices every Wednesday night and sings during the 10:30 am service. Fran and several members of the choir also lead worship with special songs of hope and praise. Our children perform periodically using bells to ring out familiar children songs. Bell practice is held during morning Sunday School.

For Our Youth
Our Middle School Youth Group meets weekly (Wednesday evenings, 7-8 pm.) for fun, fellowship and Bible study. This past year they attended the United Methodist Youth Conference in Ocean City, Maryland where over 5,000 youth were in attendance!

Our Senior High Youth Group meets periodically for Bible study, real life issue discussions and fellowship. New friends are always welcome.

Confirmation Classes are held periodically over an 8-10 week period to help instruct and lead youth to the place where they willingly and joyfully publically profess their faith in Jesus Christ. This year, we have five youth who will be confirmed on Pentecost Sunday.

For Spiritual Growth
Throughout the year, Bible studies and small groups are offered for personal and corporate spiritual growth. Some of our studies have included: Disciple Bible Study, Companions in Christ: Small Group Experiences in Christian Formation, Advent & Lenten Bible Studies and studies on individual books of the Bible.

We have also offered courses on Christian Parenting, Marriage Enrichment and Winning as a Step family.

Sports Teams
Volleyball, Basketball and Softball teams are open to youth 16 and older. We play in church leagues with most games played nearby.

50 and Over Club
Our 50+ Club, formerly known as the Hibernia Adult Methodist Seniors meets for brunch every second Saturday of the month, 10:30am at the Double D Diner for food and fellowship. They also undertake various mission and church projects funded in part by their “penny fund.”

Caring for People in the Community
We respond to Christ’s call to care for those in need by participating in the following ministries (partial listing):

Heifer Project (supplies poor families with livestock)
Supporting our over 1000 Methodist Missionaries
Special offerings for natural disasters

Community Involvement
We are currently the charter organization for Cub Scout Pack #134 and Boy Scout Troop #116. Both scouting programs meet weekly at the church.

We are also currently supporting the 101st Airborne Division of the United States Army serving in Iraq. Donations of food, magazines, crafts, chewing gum and other items are sent monthly to support our service men and women overseas.

We hope you will come and visit us at Hibernia United Methodist Church as we seek to know Christ, enjoy Him and make Him known.
