November 7th Rummage Sale

On Saturday, November 7th, the Missions and Outreach Committee will be hosting our annual Fall Rummage Sale. The sale will run from 9am to 2pm . Proceeds from the sale will go to mission projects and/or social service organizations locally, nationally, and around the world. Over $10,000 was distributed from the June 2026 sale. Hopefully, at least that much will be distributed from the November 7th sale. 

To have a successful sale, we need three things - rummage, volunteers, and shoppers. Our immediate priority is rummage - we need it and hope to receive lots of it! 

Starting on Thursday, October 1st, you may bring your rummage to the Church and drop it off in the Asbury Center Alcove. If you need help transporting any sizeable items you wish to donate, please call the Church office (412-531-7131). And thank you for your rummage!

OCT 6 - DEC 8, 2026  • 6:00 PM  •  ASBURY

Our long-running mid-week gathering, known as Terrific Tuesday, will resume on Tuesday, October 6th at 6:00 p.m. in Asbury Center. As usual, each week’s session will include a shared meal (provided by the church, free-will offering accepted), followed by activities for all ages. Nursery care is available each Tuesday night. We will not meet on November 3rd (Election Day / Rummage Sale) and November 24th (Thanksgiving Dinner Preparation). We will conclude our sessions on December 8th.

Our adult study this fall will focus on the theme “Perfectly Flawed,” a study of the often imperfect people whom God has used for holy purpose. As usual, dinner will begin at 6:00 p.m., with each night’s special activity kicking off by 6:45 p.m.

NOV 26, 2026  •  3:00 - 5:00 P.M.   •  ASBURY

On Thursday, November 26th, MLUMC will be the place for the annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner. Eat-in, take-out and delivery will be provided. Over five hundred meals will be served, along with a generous amount of hospitality and fellowship.

Hosted by the Missions and Outreach Committee, this dinner has been a fixture in the South Hills for over 40 years. Originally started by our friends at Bethany Evangelical Lutheran, MLUMC took on an increasing role over the years and is now managing the entire event.

There are four ways that you can make this dinner a success, as follows:

1) Donate a turkey (roasted and carved) – Turkeys should be dropped off at the Church on November 24th (Tuesday) and November 25th (Wednesday) of Thanksgiving week.

2) Donate a pie – Apple, cherry, or pumpkin are preferred. Please drop them at the Church on November 24th (Tuesday) and November 25th (Wednesday).

3) Donate your time – We will need volunteers for set-up on November 25th (Wednesday) and for cooking, serving, and delivering on November 26th (Thanksgiving Day).

4) Donate funds to cover costs – We provide a full course meal. Your financial support will ensure that recipients get a hearty meal with all the trimmings.

If you would like to donate a turkey(s), pie(s), time, and/or money to this important outreach effort, please contact Rob Spicher as soon as possible at robert.spicher@pnc.com or 412-720-4589. Thank you in advance for your support of this long-standing outreach ministry.
