HPUMC’s Journey Ministry, which supports and encourages individuals with early-stage Alzheimer’s and dementia, was deeply blessed by Eagle Scout Cole Corder. Cole began volunteering to complete service hours, but stayed to build meaningful relationships that continue to impact the ministry today. What started as a small act of service became a lasting legacy of care, encouragement, and faith in action.

Recently, United Methodist Women of HPUMC recognized Sara Alleman with the 2026 Spirit of Mission Award at the 11th annual Georgia Bates Award Luncheon. For more than 20 years, Sara faithfully organized and coordinated group-provided meals at Austin Street Center after first saying a simple “yes” to serve. Her steadfast commitment, generosity and heart for others have made a lasting impact on our church and beyond.
