DCC is known as a warm, welcoming, friendly place. This is a value we will strive to maintain, even with additional restrictions in the layout and usability of our spaces. Even though masks are required and physical distancing maintained, we will find ways to extend a warm greeting. We will still offer worship that lifts the heart and teaching that connects our lives with the greater story God is unfolding in and through our lives. All this to continue to connect hearts to Christ in our services so that we can see even more people become devoted followers of Christ.

The health and safety of our children and families have always been, and remains, a top priority. As we open with gradual and incremental steps, instead of opening up our DCC Kids ministry, we will begin with a fun Family-friendly venue located in the Activity Center. Families will be able to sit around tables and children will be provided with fun activity bags that link to the DCC Kids online lesson.

Currently, per state mandate, anyone five years of age or older must wear a cloth face-covering in any public building. If you are unable for medical reasons to wear a mask, for the safety of others, we want to encourage you, at this time, to continue watching online. We’ll keep updating this section as new guidelines are issued.

Each of our venues will be set up to provide physical distancing by removing rows and keeping three empty seats between groups/or individuals.

The simple answer is when you are ready. We fully support you, understanding everyone’s situation is different. As we update you with the reopening of our physical buildings, we ask that you make the right decision for you and your family. If you are in a high-risk category, or have a preexisting condition, or live with someone who does, we strongly encourage you to continue joining us online. We will continue to offer our excellent services online.

We will notify attendees via email where direct exposure to a confirmed case occurred. We will relay the date, time and location of the confirmed case. Register or update your information in our database in My DCC.

Simply put, watch parties are where you invite, host and watch the weekend message together in your home, garage, patio or any place where a group can safely gather. This is an easy way to invite friends and family, and a great way to experience community. We encourage as many who are comfortable, to explore this new opportunity.

It is our intention to continue to provide all the resources that are currently online. If you have a question about a specific resource or cannot find what you need please let us know. Currently, links to online resources can be found here. If you have questions or need assistance, please contact us.

Yes. Virtual/zoom small groups have allowed more people to connect as we continue to reach more people. In addition, virtual/zoom small groups will continue to be a way to engage in ministry for those who are not able, or not ready to come back. Small groups that are comfortable may choose to gather in person in homes. 

We are prepared for various versions of possible surges that may happen. DCC has a great relationship with local authorities, including the health department, so we will act on their suggested guidelines.

We are prepared to host small funerals and weddings under the current guidelines. Please follow up with staff.
