The combination of inflated food prices\, an end to COVID benefits\, and lingering pandemic hardships is driving more people to seek assistance at the pantry. \nFor more information\, please visit the DMARC Food Pantries website https://www.dmarcunited.org/food/\nRead DMARC’s most recent quarterly newsletter here. \nHere are two ways to donate: \n\nVia special envelopes available at DMIEC on in-person fourth Sundays.

SUMMARY:Fall Equinox Gathering
DESCRIPTION:As we approach the Autumn Equinox on September 22\, we are invited to gather to notice again the changing light and shifting energy of the turning of yet another season.  Among sacred reminders of the rhythms and cycles of all Creation\, there will be music\, poetry\, silence\, an invitation to dance in body or spirit—all to honor both the fullness of the season of harvest and the emptiness the harvest opens up for what is to come. \nGathering music begins at 6:45 in advance of the event’s 7:00 p.m. start.  Hosts are Kay Kopatich\, Morgan Rivers\, and Carmen Lampe Zeitler.  Please let Carmen (carmen.lampezeitler@gmail.com) know by September 15 if you plan to join the gathering.

SUMMARY:DMARC Emergency Food Pantries Sunday Special Collection
DESCRIPTION:Our DMIEC community works to address food insecurity issues in the Des Moines metro area via a special collection for the DMARC Emergency Food Pantries on the fourth Sunday of every month. \nThe need is real.  In 2023\, over 65\,000 individuals were assisted\, more than a third of whom were 17 years old or younger.  Nearly one in four City of Des Moines residents used a DMARC pantry.  The daily record for most visits on a day was broken 23 times last year. \nAnd that need has not subsided. The combination of inflated food prices\, an end to COVID benefits\, and lingering pandemic hardships is driving more people to seek assistance at the pantry. \nFor more information\, please visit the DMARC Food Pantries website https://www.dmarcunited.org/food/\nRead DMARC’s most recent quarterly newsletter here. \nHere are two ways to donate: \n\nVia special envelopes available at DMIEC on in-person fourth Sundays. Please write checks to “DMARC\,” include a note with/on your check indicating that you are part of the DMIEC community\, put the check in the envelope\, and put the envelope in the collection basket.\nSend donation checks directly to DMARC. Please write checks to “DMARC” and mail to DMARC at its *new address\,* 100 Army Post Road\, Des Moines\, IA 50315. Please include a note with your check indicating that you are part of the DMIEC community.

SUMMARY:Flicks & Fellowship
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a rollicking and fun good time following the characters and tale of the Milagro Beanfield War\, a comedy-drama with an excellent cast. Conceived and directed by Robert Redford in 1988\, the screenplay is based on one of John Nichols’ “New Mexico Trilogy” novels. It was filmed in Truchas\, NM\, and is credited with being one of the first screenplays to use magical realism. You'll love meeting the citizens of Milagro—Ruby Aruchuleta\, Joe Mondragon\, Amarante Cordova\, NYU student Herbie\, the Senile Brigade\, and more—who join forces to resist the land-grab and water-rights-thievery of Big Moneyed Business. Bring a snack to share and enjoy camaraderie\, laughter\, and thoughtful discussion about community\, loyalty\, who is family\, and more.
