Sunday Service:
Sunday service will be held in the sanctuary at 10:00 am. All are welcome. Come join us.
Children’s Church School:
We will hold a Children’s Church School Class in Fellowship Hall. This class will be for children of all ages (yep-that means you, children of God-ALL ages!)! We will focus on The Big Ones-the Bible stories we’ve heard before-or maybe we haven’t! We’ll experience the stories in new ways, learn songs, do a craft, have fun in the process. Feel free to bring your children or grandchildren if you need to use them as a cover so it doesn’t look like YOU’RE the one who wants to come! This class will be led by Amy Wade and a few special assistants.
Lift Fund Raising Committee:
A lift fundraising group has been formed and will begin sharing their plans and ideas on September 21. Hopefully you will be just as excited as they are about this project. The goal is not to put an unnecessary burden on your pocketbook but to provide some things that are fun, useful and inclusive as we help to offset the funds spent on the lift that is being installed to help us navigate between floors. Stay tuned.
Mum’s the Word:
The Lift Fundraising Committee is holding a Mum Sale to raise money for the new lift. Orders must be received by Sunday, September 28th, and mums can be picked up at the church on Sunday morning, October 5. The mums are huge, and a bargain at $6 each. Colors available: yellow, white, rust, burgundy, and violet. Order forms can be found in the bulletin, or email Bev Hiller at hillbev10@verizon.net.
Noisy Offering:
This is an offering of loose change to be placed in the buckets at the front of the sanctuary loudly (hence the name noisy offering!) Monies collected will go toward the Pastor’s Discretionary Fund, which is used to support folks in our community who need assistance with daily living expenses.
“All God’s Children Got A Place in the Choir:”
Doe Run’s Chancel Choir meets for practice every Wednesday at 7:00 pm in the sanctuary from now until late May. The choir provides weekly anthems for our regular services as well as special music for Christmas, Easter, and other special events. We welcome new members! If yoiu love to sing and would like to join this talented and committed group of singers, feel free to contact Kris McGuckin for additional information.
Produce Sharing Table:
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!
Women’s Bible Study:
Women’s Bible Study will resume on Friday, September 19th at 9:30 am in the Fellowship Hall. We are studying the book Desire of the Everlasting Hills by Thomas Cahill. All women welcome!
Rise Against Hunger:
Sunday October 12, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Unionville Presbyterian Church. Bring a covered dish to share.
Rise Against Hunger is growing a global movement to end hunger by empowering communities, nourishing lives and responding to emergencies.
Rise Against Hunger works in countries worldwide to fight hunger, targeting communities facing high rates of food insecurity. We provide volunteer-packaged meals and other assistance, often through school feeding programs, to support nutrition, education and health for children and families facing hunger right now. We also partner with local leaders to implement sustainable agriculture and income-generating projects that support long-term solutions to food security and empower communities to become self-reliant and thrive. Last year 54.3 M meals were packed, 9.4 M lives impacted, 2139 metric tons of food produced/procured.
Book Club:
Do you love to read? How about talking about the books that you’ve read? Have we got the group for you! Those that haven’t read and just want to hear others’ opinions on the book are also welcome. Plan to join the Doe Run Book Club, which meets the third Thursday of each month (next meeting this Thursday, October 16th) at 7:00 pm here at the church. Please contact organizer Deb Leonhard if you have questions.
Homecoming:
Sunday October 26, 2025. Celebrate Doe Run’s past, present, and future at the 10:00 a.m. service
Wired Word:
The Wired Word meets on Tuesday, September 30th at 6:30 in the Ramsey room. This week’s installment is entitled “Fear of Censorship Arises After Jimmy Kimmel Removal.” Comedian and talk show host Jimmy Kimmel was recently removed from the air after making comments about the man accused of murdering Charlie Kirk. The Chairman of the Federal Communication Commission called Kimmel’s comments “sick” and ABC-Disney pulled him, leading many to question the government’s role in regulating free speech. Then Kimmel’s show was restored. This installment of The Wired Word will focus on the power of speech and the danger of censorship, in both church and state.
Hope to see you there.
Adult Sunday School:
Adult Sunday School will return from vacation on September 28, 2025. The Present Word Series will continue this fall. The fall quarter lessons titled the Worship in the Covenant Community. The lessons are divided into three units: Leaders Set Worship Example, Songs of the Old Testament, and Psalms of Thanksgiving and Praise. All are welcome!We will meet in the Ramsey Room. Please join us then.
Volunteers Needed:
The Fellowship Committee is looking for volunteers to assist with Sunday morning coffee hour. 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!
Boy Scouts:
Boy Scout Troop 48 meets every Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m. in Fellowship Hall. 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.
Splinter’s Group Gathering:
On the first Friday of each month the Splinters Women’s Fellowship will gather in Fellowship Hall at 11:15. There will be devotionals and a brief business meeting. Bring a sandwich cut into four pieces to share with others. Come join us for the fun and fellowship.
