"I’m thankful for all of you every time I pray, and it’s always a prayer full of joy. I’m glad because of the way you have been my partners in the ministry of the gospel . . ."

-Philippians 1:4-5a CEB

Writing these weekly "letters" always reminds me of Paul's letters and as we start the countdown to Thanksgiving later this month, I can't help but be grateful for so much:


  • For fun and laughter and good food 
  • For brave steps towards vulnerability and deeper faith
  • For our small group leaders, welcome team, and kitchen team who make Sunday nights possible
  • For college students modeling faith after high school
  • For parents' partnership in the great privilege of passing on our faith to the next generation
  • For the wisdom and guidance of the Youth Ministry Committee


I don't think I can say it enough: thank you all for the many ways you contribute to DCPC's youth ministry!

DCPC worships this Sunday at 8:45 am (traditional), 9:45 am (casual), & 11 am (traditional). All worship services are in the Congregation House.

Youth Music is meeting this Sunday in the Choir Room at 4:30. Also, mark your calendars for the Christmas Pageant on December 11th if you might want to speak, act, sing, or dance! We're also looking for instrumentalists to be part of the pageant too! Let Sarah Allred know if you're interested.

Screen & Scripture (intergenerational Sunday school class, 9:45 in the youth lounge) is headed to Wakanda this Sunday to start watching and exploring Black Panther this Sunday as we get ready for Wakanda Forever next weekend!

This Sunday's Youth Group (5:30 - 7 pm) wraps up our focus on faith and science for Middle schoolers! High schoolers will be connecting over bonfires and other fun. Click here to find out more about what we're teaching and get resources for continuing the conversation at home

The Day of Service is this Saturday! If you are still interested in joining a project, contact Robert Alexander.

A great place that our middle and high schoolers can make a difference is in DCPC's Children's Ministry! Talk to Jenny Alexander if you are interested and plan on joining us November 20th for a training event (more info below).

FEEDBACK ON SUMMER TRIPS


The Youth Committee is meeting next Wednesday to make some decisions about where and when we're headed on the road this summer. We would love to hear from you about where you'd love us to go, what you'd love to see us doing, and maybe even when in the summer is best. Just hit reply and help us read your minds.

NEXT SUNDAY


Quick reminder that we will not be having Youth Group or Screen & Scripture on Sunday November 13th because we'll have been on the Fall Retreat all weekend.

JOIN THE KITCHEN TEAM


In order to ensure that we can continue to provide our youth with meals before youth group, we need your help! Would you consider committing to two Sundays between now and the end of the year to volunteer in the kitchen to provide meals? It requires arriving a little early at 4:45, and helping set out food and utensils, making drinks, and cleaning up afterwards. Thank you for making our youth group meals possible and sign up today!
