ABOUT

New to DCC

The first thing you’ll notice when you arrive at DCC is that we’re nestled on a quiet side street. Aside from our sign and large front windows, our building blends right into the neighborhood—it looks just like home. You’ll also see that we don’t have a parking lot. Street parking is available right in front of the church and along Allison St. If you park on Dunklee St., please be mindful of our neighbors' driveways, especially during the winter months.

As you enter through the front door, you’ll find the sanctuary to your right. Feel free to sit wherever you’re comfortable. We’re a casual, welcoming community, and you’ll notice that our sanctuary has the warm, inviting feel of a living room.

Our service begins with our worship leader reading scripture. We typically sing four to five worship songs, but we always remain open to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Worship is personal, and we encourage you to express it in a way that feels natural to you. Some raise their hands, some stand, others sit, and some may even walk around—you’ll often see Apostle Jim moving about as he worships.

Following worship, Apostle Jim will come forward to pray or share what the Lord has spoken to him during our time of praise. After that, we gather at the front—just follow the flow of the congregation—to present our offerings to God and receive the communion elements. Apostle Jim will lead us in communion and then invite anyone who would like to share a testimony of what the Lord has done in their life throughout the week. Once testimonies are shared, A.J. will begin preaching.

When the sermon concludes, A.J. will close in prayer. While we don’t have a formal altar call like some churches, you are always welcome to come forward for prayer. If you’d like to pray alone or receive prayer from someone, you can sit in the first row of chairs near the communion table. Apostle Jim is always available to pray with you or for you.

If you have any questions, needs, or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Apostle Jim or any of our leaders. We’re here to support and walk alongside you in faith.
