The mission of the local Community Development Ministry is to engage our Door Creek Church community in relational service to improve the quality of life for all people in Dane County. Our focus is serving the most vulnerable children and families. Our dream is to see the entire Door Creek Church community serving together to empower and encourage people right here in our city. We’re doing that by inviting everyone to choose a Community Development initiative to get involved.
Door Creek Church partners with these seven partner schools. Both staff and church attenders offer support to these schools as needs arise. We focus on making our Encouraging Educators matches at these schools, regularly tutor children, collect books for students and provide in other means as needed. There are a wide variety of volunteer opportunities throughout the day and we’re constantly looking for more volunteers to help serve in the school and behind the scenes.

At Door Creek Church, we love teachers and school staff and want to support them as they work hard to provide a quality education for all students. We encourage all of our Life Groups, families, or individual volunteers to take part in our Encouraging Educators program. Groups can support their educator in a variety of ways both in and outside of the classroom. Ideas, training and support are provided to make this a valuable experience for all.
