Welcome to Doe Run!  

Doe Run is a vibrant group of people who seek to follow Jesus Christ through caring for one another and loving our neighbors -- always working toward a deeper understanding of just who our neighbor is.

On Sundays, we worship at 10:00 am, celebrating God through scripture-based preaching and a great blend of traditional and  contemporary music.

We take prayer seriously, speaking prayers each week for ourselves and  those we love. Our children accompany us to worship, leaving after the children's sermon for Sunday School and lively bible lessons.

The Lord's Supper is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month.

The table of Jesus Christ is open to all comers, including children. An offering is taken each week in gratitude for blessings received. This offering supports our church and our mission activities both local and global.

Come and see what we're about here at Doe Run -- we're large enough to offer diverse thinking and a wide world view, and small enough to provide warmth, welcome and nuture.

Welcome Gabrielle (Gabby) Kennedy!

Gabrielle Carlson Kennedy was born and raised in North Central Pennsylvania. Gabby is close with her parents, her two sisters, and their families. Gabby graduated from Lancaster Theological Seminary in 2017 with a Master’s of Divinity Degree. Though raised a United Methodist, Gabby went to seminary with the intention of becoming a Unitarian Universalist (UU) minister. After many years in that religion, Gabby found that the pluralism of UU was not enough, and consequently she found herself called back to a devout faith in Jesus Christ. Now Gabby embraces the Trinity whole heartedly, and thoroughly enjoys reformed worship.

Gabby is new to PCUSA, so don’t be surprised to find her referencing the Book of Order frequently.

Gabby loves taking long walks in nature, dancing, practicing Hatha Yoga, and meditating. Gabby also cherishes her two cats, James and Jon Aaron. Gabby’s favorite foods are sushi and gravy fries, though she is not eating either of those much these days because she has permanently given up all kinds of flour and sugar (sushi rice is made with sugar).  So, Gabby is sticking primarily to fruits and vegetables these days. Gabby is thrilled to be with Doe Run as her first traditional pastorate. She looks forward to learning about and loving each member of the church. This is going to be a learning experience for both Gabby and Doe Run. With God’s Grace, kindness, and patience, Gabby hopes Doe Run will embrace her in the days to come.
