On Easter Sunday morning, as a part of our 10:00 am worship service, our church takes part in a tradition known as “The Flowering of the Cross”. Members of our congregation and visitors alike take a flower bundle from those provided by the Worship Team and place it onto the bare wooden cross. Often, families stand together at the cross, each picking out a special spot for their flower. The flowering continues until flowers, in a brilliant array of color, cover it completely. The flowering of the cross represents the transition from Good Friday to Easter…from meditation on Jesus’ death to joyful celebration of his resurrection and new life. Covered with fresh, living flowers, the cross serves not only as an emblem of Jesus’ resurrection but also of the continuing presence of Christ among today’s Christians.
Throughout the season of Lent we will be supporting One Great Hour of Sharing. Each gift to One Great Hour of Sharing supports efforts to relieve hunger through the Presbyterian Hunger Program, promote development through the Presbyterian Committee on the Self-Development of People, and assist in areas of disaster through Presbyterian Disaster Assistance. All three programs work in different ways to serve individuals and communities in need. From initial disaster response to ongoing community development, their work fits together to provide people with safety, sustenance, and hope. Our One Great Hour of Sharing ofering will be presented on April 20, 2025
Our Women’s Bible Study meets every Friday at 9:30 am in the Fellowship Hall, with the study of Thomas Cahill’s book The World Before and After Jesus Desire of the Everlasting Hills. Cahill sows Jesus from his birth to his execution through the eyes of those who knew him and the context of his time. Here is Jesus the loving friend, itinerant preacher, whose words and actions inspired his followers to journey throughout the Roman world and speak the truth he instilled. Daring and provocative, Desire of the Everlasting Hills is Thomas Cahill’s most compelling historical narrative yet.
Please contact Deb Leonhard for more information or a copy of the book.
Join us on Sunday for Adult Sunday School Class at 9:00 am in the Fellowship Hall. Our curriculum is titled “Worship in the Covenant Community”, a part of the Present Word series. Over the course of the year we will move through three units: Leaders Set Worship Example, Songs of the Old Testament, and Psalms of Thanksgiving and Praise. Bill Dyke will lead this class.
Adult Bible Study & Discussion Group
Our Wired Word discussion group will be paused during Lent. Please come and worship with us during our Tuesday evening Lenten services at 7:00 in the Sanctuary.
Did you know that you can recycle your scrap metal and support our local Boy Scout troop at the same time? Visit “Scouting for Scrap Metal—Boy Scout Troop 48” on Facebook, or speak with Jake Hewson, to discuss ways that your junk can help fund Scout projects. This is especially relevant to us as one of the troop members is working on his Eagle Scout project right here at Doe Run—building steps and a handrail to make our fire pit area more accessible.
The Fellowship Committee is looking for volunteers to assist with Sunday morning coffee hours. We all enjoy the fruit of the teams’ labors, but would like to add a few more people to the teams! If you would be interested in helping out by providing goodies with a team once every 7 weeks, please contact Lathea Moskel. Many hands make light work!
Looking for an opportunity to brighten up our worship space? The flower calendar is hanging on the door to the Nicholas Room. Please take a moment to sign up to sponsor flowers for the worship service. Flowers can be placed in honor of or in memory of a loved one, or simply to the glory of God. The cost is $20, and money should be placed in the offering plate with a note with your name and indicating that the money is for flowers.
