With a theme reflecting on “what grounds you in life,” Sunday’s worship services were built on the firm foundation established by our faithful DPC Youth. 

"Even in our moments of doubt, we serve a risen Lord who transforms uncertainty into hope. Imagine facing every challenge with the assurance that God is alive and in control—because that truth changes everything!"

-Jamie Neal, Seminarian

Dr. Donald Juel, reflecting on the resurrection account in the Gospel of Mark, once wrote that: "None of the Gospels can really end the story of Jesus. The whole point is that it continues–and that its significance continues.” Thank God that we are a part of Jesus' living story! Looking forward to celebrating this continuing story on Easter Sunday with you. 

-Pastor Mac Schafer

"Join us on Palm Sunday as we continue to explore God’s joy. Your joy matters. Tom Are, Jr. says, 'Joy is not the result of turning a blind eye to the brokenness of ourselves and our world; instead, joy is a confidence in the power of love.'"

-Pastor Mac Schafer

"We are in week five of exploring God’s restoration of joy in our lives. This week our theme is joy as a group effort.

-Pastor Mac Schafer

Every church has a culture which can sometimes lead to a sense of belonging or exclusion. Join in this week as Pastor Becca explores the question found in the book of Romans: What does it mean to nurture belonging and be a part of a church together?

This Sunday, Pastor Mac will built on the first two weeks of our Lenten series: The restoration of God's joy, while affirming that God's joy is already in us.

"Join in this Sunday as we continue in the series Restore Unto Me the Joy! John 15, reflects on a joy that has been there all along. But how do you tap into it?"

-Rev. Becca Bateman

Our Book of Common Worship says, “The season of Lent is a time for growth in the faith through prayer, spiritual discipline, and self-examination in preparation for the commemoration of the dying and rising of the Lord Jesus Christ.” This Sunday Pastor Mac preached on Psalm 51, introducing our Lenten theme on the restoration of Christ’s joy in our lives.

Rev. Dr. Mac Schafer concludes our Advent theme of exploring the names of Jesus during our Christmas Eve Communion Service.
