Holy Week - March/April
During the Christian season of Lent, College Hill has several extra services to mark the special journey of Jesus to Jerusalem.  it begins with Ash Wednesday in February and concluding with Holy Week services including Maundy Thursday which marks the time of Jesus gathering around the table for a meal with his closest friends, and Tenebrae on the Friday before Easter, marking the time of Jesus' death.

Earth Day - April
The Sunday before April 22 is our time to celebrate Earth Day, a special day to College Hill UMC - we invite the children to sing, have special music and speakers.  It is a day to call us together to celebrate the goodness of God's creation.

Memorial Sunday - May
Every Memorial Day Weekend, College Hill remembers all those saints of our church community who died in the previous year.  We hold a special remembrance for each life and celebrate their contribution to our community.

Fourth of July
Every year we pull out all the stops for a huge musical bash with one combined service filled with all the best of our music.  We celebrate our nation's birthday College Hill style while we swing and sway to the music!

Blessing of the Animals - October
At College Hill United Methodist, we take one Sunday a year to honor the world side of life.  At the 9:40am and 11:00am service, we invite folks to bring us their dogs and cats and gerbils and salamanders and have them blessed.  In the tradition of St. Francis of Assisi, who loved all of God's creatures, College Hill blesses the whole of creation.

Christmas Season - December
During the Christian Season of Advent, College Hill celebrates with the Richard Crowson Family's music at our Music @the Hill series. We celebrate the beginning of the winter season with our Longest Night service on the evening of the winter solstice.  Also, Christmas Eve services for families, with communion, and with wonderful music highlight this special time of year.
