Scripture: Acts 17: 16-34
Sermon: Out of Our Control

Lib McGregor Simmons will preach at 8:30 in the sanctuary.


Paul's sermon to the Athenians is addressed not only to first century sophisticates, but to people in every century who "would spend their time in nothing but telling or hearing something new."  While Paul's sermon is often noted for beginning where his learned audience is, that is, with references to the objects of their worship and an altar with the inscription "to an unknown god," his message is, at its root, the old, old story which asserts that all of life belongs to God. According to Paul, Christ's resurrection is the ultimate expression that our lives do not belong only to ourselves, but ultimately belong to God.


The Geneva Choir will sing If Ye Love Me at the 8:30 service.

Journey Fund
Many people point to participating in mission trips, attending camp, and going to conferences such as the Montreat Youth Conference, the Massanetta Middle School Conference, and the Montreat Worship and Music Conference as pivotal in their faith journeys. DCPC wants to make it possible for EVERYONE to participate in these powerful experiences and thus the Session established the Journey Fund several years ago to provide scholarship assistance for mission trips, camps, and conferences.  The Journey Fund receives no funds from the budget and thus is entirely dependent upon contributions over and above your pledges.  Your contribution will be gladly accepted through the DCPC website (CLICK HERE) or by indicating Journey Fund on the memo line of your check.
