GATHER!
Here are the ways we worship & join in fellowship together.
How wonderful to worship together in our sanctuary!

Worship Schedule
10 am in the Sanctuary or on Facebook Live.
This week’s scripture lesson is:
Jeremiah 8:18-9:1
Missed Church on Sunday? Want to hear the sermon again? Check out any sermons you missed here!
At this time, masks are optional; however, let us be mindful of the needs of those around us. May we respect and love one another whether wearing a mask or going without. In the Sanctuary if someone is wearing a mask, please leave some space if you are not wearing one.
As Matthew 7:12 says, "Treat others as you would want to be treated."
Thank you for living in Christian love with one another!

Help with the "Dilworth's Future" video!
Following worship service this Sunday, you can be a part of Dilworth’s 125 Anniversary story! We would like to interview Dilworth Church members as a part of the “Dilworth’s Future” video, envisioning what the future of our church looks like and what that means to our members.
A camera will be set up outside the sanctuary on the front walkway; drop by for a few minutes to talk about your vision for Dilworth’s future! Here are a few things to think about in preparation,
- What do you love most about Dilworth Church?
- How long have you been a member?
- What would you like for us to be celebrating in 5 years?
- What do we need to continue doing to be a sign of God’s love for the world?

If you are new to Dilworth, have been here for a while, or have been here a really long time, and you would like to know about our church Pastors Michelle and Cade would love for you to join them for brunch.
