About Hebron UCC


Hebron United Church of Christ rests on the crest of a hill at the junction of Hebron Church Road and Old Highway 52 in Midway Township of North Carolina. Hebron UCC celebrates its 152th Anniversary in 2008!

Hebron's sanctuary is warm and inviting.   The Chancel is adorned with flowers on special occasions.  Easter heralds the resurrection of our Lord as Easter Lilies sing the great news. Above our altar is a lighted stained glass window depicting Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. 


Our pastor, David Carter, is a warm, compassionate, and loving man of God. On this Advent Sunday, joy shines forth in this man the Lord has called to tell of the overwhelming love of Christ and the comforting  presence of the Holy Spirit! Pastor Dave has great trust and enthusiasm for his mission and faces each day with a smile.
 


Each one finds their own way to draw near to God and worship. Easter Sunrise Service celebrates the resurrection of Christ. As our early worship service quietly moves to the cemetery, we take part in the "Sonrise" and the morning meditation, the birds sing and the darkened skies reveal the light of day.
 


Pastor Carter brings the message of God's salvation!  He seeks God's wisdom and shares the truth of God's unconditional love to all mankind. "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life " John 3:16 NRSV.

Shown above are three new members of the Hebron Consistory.  The Consistory is the ruling body of Hebron UCC.  Standing in front from left to right is LeeAnn Triplett, Bonnie Fansler, and Frank Willard.  Jamie Anderson is the fourth new member, and absent on this installation service date.  Standing behind are outgoing Consistory members, (left to right) Melodie Triplett, C. Mike Davis, Jean Largen, and Brenda Long.


Hebron's choir sings under the able direction of director and organist, Cathy Motsinger.  Cathy gladly welcomes new voices into the choir. Music is an important part of every worship service!  Each fifth Sunday has addition musical selections often with special musicians or vocal groups taking part in our service of worship. Seen above is the trio, "Mercy's Well," lifting the spirits of the congregation as they entertained with their delightful harmony.


Celebrating with a Love feast has become a tradition at Hebron. These dieners  close the service during the Advent Season. Courtney Carter, front right, sings the solo part of "Morning Star."


Hebron Women's Fellowship is at the heart of service at Hebron United Church of Christ. Jesus calls us to serve and love one another. These women know the meaning of service. Bonnie and Joan prepare Valentine Gift Bags for shut-ins. This group gathers the second Thursday of each month.


Several ladies from the Women's Fellowship went out to eat at Cherries Cafe in Clemmons to celebrate an anniversary of  Hebron UCC Women's Fellowship, such good food and fine company is a joy!


Shown above are families of the three wonderful men that were recognized by the Women's Fellowship by certificates of recognition from the Dr. James E. Lightbourne Scholarship Fund.  Top left of these three photos shows the family of Donald C. Hines, to the right of this family is Fred Livengood, and the bottom photos features the family of Raymond Leonard.  Joan Craven, president of the Women's Fellowship, stands to the bottom right in this last photo.

Shown above is Hebron Women's Fellowship president, Joan Craven, presenting beautiful roses to Ashley Triplett.  Ashley  was recently named as one of the scholarship recipients of the Dr. James E. Lightbourne Scholarship Fund.  Ashley was one of only four 2008 recipients of scholarships from the Dr. James E. Lightbourne Scholarship Fund. One other member, Kala White, of Hebron UCC  who was absent on this date also received a scholarship.
 
Hebron's Board of Christian Education presented mothers with small hanging baskets for Mother's Day.  Shown above on the left is Janet Dunkelberger, and on the right is Frances Atkins displaying their gifts.


How about a cold treat on a hot Sunday afternoon?  Mitchell Mazur on the front left is serving whipped cream to top some delicious desserts during an ice cream social.  Homemade ice cream and a huge variety of desserts to complement the frozen treats were available in abundance!  After all were served, an afternoon of great entertainment was spooned out to the great group assembled!


Allison Davis pictured second from the right in this photo, brought three of her good friends to lead a line dance lesson during a recent Community Fun Day Event.  Hebron's Evangelism Committee sponsors Community Fun Days open to the surrounding Midway Community. 

  During a recent Community Fun Day, delicious homemade chili and toasted cheese sandwiches satisfied hunger pangs as time was taken from many enjoyable games.

The children above were trying their hand at shooting marbles.  Yes, adaptations were made in this old game, but the goals were the same. This was one of the other activities offered during Community Fun Day.


Hebron has a ball field included in its Memorial Park.  A picnic shelter adjoins the ball field.  Weekly, Hebron hosts a community team that practices on the field during baseball season.


Pastor Carter  pronounces the benediction. May each one that comes through the doors of Hebron United Church of Christ leave knowing the love of Christ goes with them. As each worship service concludes, our service continues as we leave serve and love one another.
