The Village Post is where you can stay in the know about all things dcf!
SPECIAL NOTICE: THERE IS NO VIRTUAL GATHERING ON DEC 6
Our first in-person event will be Sunday, December 6 at 2pm. Lessons and Carols is a special dcf tradition so we hope to see everyone there! We will meet outside in a large white banquet tent at a church in Pendleton (Christ the Redeemer). In order to show love and hospitality to our neighbors, we will wear masks for the entire duration of our time together. For more information contact Monica at perez.mlp@gmail.com.
At dcf we believe everyone is an artist and we love to do community art projects. This year we will be sharing a coloring page with each other during our virtual gathering on Dec 20. By all holding up our individual art to the screen it will make one collage that we can screenshot and enjoy.
Please print out (one per couple/family) coloring page here:

You can add this into your Advent liturgy plans, or color while listening to Christmas music or during house church or whatever! For more information contact Julie at joshandjulie.spoelstra@gmail.com.
This past Sunday Josh shared the mostly figured out plan for Dec 2020 - June 2021. We will be doing an alternating in-person and virtual gathering pattern. Take a look and listen and pray about how you will best use your passions and spiritual gifts to participate in dcf life.
At the end of this presentation Josh shared these questions for the breakout rooms. We asked that people jot down ideas and send them to clemsondcf@gmail.com or text Julie at 864.280.4763. At dcf we value corporate discernment and we know that the Holy Spirit speaks to each one of us. Josh would love to hear feedback on any of this so please feel free to continue sharing your responses to these questions:
Discuss the ways in which you would like to be involved/invest in the community of dcf in 2021.
What ideas do you wish to see incorporated into our gatherings and ministry engagement?
What questions and/or concerns might you have as we proceed together as a faith family?
Here is our financial giving and expenses since August. We give all glory to God that we have been able to save some money over these Fall months in preparation for added expenses coming in 2021 related to in-person gatherings and ministry opportunities. Just like the Flintstones. all our contributions together support and move dcf forward.
We invite everyone to find a house church that meets near where you live!
There are locations in Salem, North Anderson, Pendleton and Central.
Each house church will meet either in-person, virtual or a hybrid and is the BEST place for you to develop deeper relationships and grow spiritually.
For more information contact clemsondcf@gmail.com or Josh at 864.364.7128.
