Rise Against Hunger is a growing global movement to end hunger by nourishing lives, empowering communities and responding to emergencies. They primarily target remote communities within hunger pockets that have been designated as “serious” or higher by the Global Hunger Index. In addition to providing those communities with food resources, they work within the communities to find ways to fight their food and nutrition insecurities internally as well. How can we help? On Sunday, October 20th we will partner with Unionville and Bethany Presbyterian Churches to pack 10,000 nutritionally dense shelf stable meals to support Rise Against Hunger’s efforts. We will gather together at Doe Run for worship at 10:00 am and then move to Fellowship Hall to pack meals before sharing a fellowship meal together. Many hands make light work! If you’d like to financially support this effort, checks can be placed in the offering plate made out to Doe Run Presbyterian Church with “RAH” or “Rise Against Hunger” in the memo line. It’s hard work, a good cause, and excellent fellowship. What a great day!
Our Women’s Bible Study meets every Friday at 9:30 am in the Fellowship Hall, continuing our study of the book, The Gifts of the Jews: How a Tribe of Nomads Changed the Way Everyone Thinks and Feels. 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
Will meet on Tuesday October 15, 2024 at 6:30 in the Ramsey Room.
Has your garden produced more than you and your family can consume? Or perhaps you didn’t get a garden planted this year but would love some fresh tomatoes, cucumbers or zucchini? We have placed a Produce Sharing Table in the rear of the sanctuary. This is the perfect spot to bring your excess produce, or to pick up a few items that you don’t have access to from your own garden. The only thing better than your own, home-grown, fresh produce is sharing your bounty with others!
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.
On Sunday, October 27th we will celebrate our first annual Homecoming Sunday—a special day dedicated to celebrating and giving thanks to God for the ministry of Doe Run Presbyterian Church. We will recognize long-time members, acknowledge ways that we have reached out into the community, celebrate the ways that we have stretched and grown over the past year, and honor those we have lost. Bring your stories, memories and pictures to share. We hope you’ll plan to join us for this special worship service and time of fellowship.
“Fine Tuning your Medicare, an informative presentation by Ted Pawlik was given at the church on October 4, 2024. Ted reviewed significant changes in Medicare Drug Plans for 2025 and discussed how to take advantage of the Medicare Open Enrollment Period to get the coverage you need at a cost you can afford. Ted is willing to provide one on one counseling at the church on October 25th. He has a few 90 minute appointments available. You may call Ted at 610-384-4234.
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.
The church has purchased an AED device (defibrillator) which has been installed in the vestibule.
