UMHB Easter Pageant


Experience one of UMHB’s long-standing traditions; on April 16, UMHB will present the 86th Annual Easter Pageant. Show times are 12:30 p.m., 3:00 p.m., and 5:30 p.m.

No tickets are needed for this event; all seating is first-come, first-served at Luther Memorial.

Join us on Friday, April 18 at 6 pm for our Good Friday Service as we reflect on Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross and what that means for us today.

Good Friday is a worship service that commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus. On Good Friday, we remember the day Jesus willingly suffered and died by crucifixion as the ultimate sacrifice for our sins (1 John 1:10). The day that seemed to be the greatest triumph of evil was actually the death blow in God’s gloriously good plan to redeem the world from bondage.

Join us for this momentous worship service!

Shawn Colvin ~ Cultural Activities Center

Friday, May 16, 2025


In an era when female singer-songwriters are ever more ubiquitous, Shawn Colvin stands out as a singular and enduring talent. Her songs are slow-release works of craft and catharsis that become treasured, lifetime companions for their listeners. As a storyteller, Colvin is both keen and warm-hearted, leavening even the toughest tales with tenderness, empathy, and a searing sense of humor. In the 30 years since the release of her debut album, Colvin has won three GRAMMY® Awards, released thirteen albums, written a critically acclaimed memoir, maintained a non-stop national and international touring schedule, appeared on countless television and radio programs, had her songs featured in major motion pictures and created a remarkable canon of work.

The Bell County Business Group meets every Friday morning from 8:15-9:30 at Dead Fish Grill, in Belton, TX.

Our new exhibition, So Ready for Laughter: The Legacy of Bob Hope, is now open!

“Bob Hope elicited laughs across all media: through radio waves, on stage, and on the screen, in both television and film. But none of them mattered more than the humor he injected into American camps across the globe during World War II, as the Allies struggled to save the world for democracy. Come see So Ready for Laughter: The Legacy of Bob Hope, and learn about Hope’s unique contribution to the American war effort.” The exhibition is presented by the National WWII Museum and sponsored by the Bob and Delores Hope Foundation. The exhibit will be on display at the Bell County Museum through June 14, 2025.
