I first started attending Coupeville United Methodist Church in late 2004, early 2005, when my family moved to the island. Through the Youth Group I took three trips to California to participate in Gleanings for the Hungry missions. Barbara Cope lead me though my confirmation. After I graduated from Coupeville High School in 2010 I attended University of Evansville in IN, a Methodist affiliated college. Between moving around the country, I would occasionally return to Coupeville UMC for service.
