This is the Hopewell Community Church, formerly the EUB (Evangelical United Brethren in the 60's), adjacent to Hwy 153 at Hopewell, Oregon. Most long-time folks that were/are from the area are/will be buried here.
My father moved to Hopewell, Oregon with his family between 1930 and 1934. He was a small child then. His mother would walk across a field from their small farm on sunday morning with as many of her 12 children as possible to attend church here. My father is now 92 and still attends church with the Hopewell congregation. I was married in this church as were my 2 sisters. About 30 years ago the church raised money to build an addition which would be a gymnasium, a kitchen and Sunday School rooms. My father, a carpenter built much of it along with other church members. Many of my relatives are buried in the cemetery.
