It’s thirteen weekly sessions which include video, discussion, workbook study and support. The cost is $15 which pays for the workbook.

January 23rd Update
Mission Sunday
During our worship service on February 5th, together we will recommit some of our financial resources to support missions locally, nationally, and around the world. This is the element of faith in our giving beyond what we have already committed to DHUMC that lends the Faith Promise its special character. Please be in prayer over the next few weeks to discern what God is calling you to give according to His riches in Jesus Christ.
Old Friends & Bright Beginnings Luncheon
Our next monthly luncheon will be Thursday, February 2nd at 11:30am in the Fellowship Hall, please make your reservations toady. The meal will be catered by B&P Grubbs. Our program for the month will be a “Show-n-Tell” day. We are requesting everyone bring an antique item or something that has a story or special meaning and be prepared to tell about it. Maybe you have an item that will not be familiar to us and you can “stump” the crowd. It should be very interesting and fun.
