Lord's Prayer Series

On Sunday, February 14, at 8:30 and 11:00 a.m., Parish Associate Rev. Bill Tieman will close out DCPC's six-week series on The Lord's Prayer with a sermon on the "For Thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever" segment of the prayer. In this series, through music, prayer, Scripture and sermon, worshipers have been immersed in the powerful meaning embodied in each line of this prayer. Please mark your calendars for a program related to this sermon series on February 22-24 when Davidson College hosts a conference on "The Lord's Prayer in Religion and Ethics."

Lent 2010: “Abiding in the Shelter of the Lord”

"You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty, will say to the LORD, ‘My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.’ (Psalm 91: 1-2).    These words call us to worship and reflection during the church’s penitential season. Lent begins with worship on Ash Wednesday at 7 p.m. on February 17. You are invited to join with others in the DCPC community for this ritual, which is both ancient and contemporary, and serves as a reminder of God’s faithfulness to us in our mortality.

Alternative Lenten Worship Services

For six Saturdays during Lent, February 20-March 27, DCPC will offer an alternative worship service on Saturday nights at 5 p.m. in Lingle Chapel. These services will have a similar structure to our Sunday worship, but with contemporary music blended into the services, and old hymns sung in new ways. Services will incorporate contemporary media sounds and images alongside familiar prayers and creeds, with words of scripture, liturgy, and song projected onto a screen. Saturday and Sunday Lenten services will explore the same theme, "Abiding in the Shelter of the Lord," and be based upon the same lectionary passages, reminding us of our connection to the world outside our doors. As with all worship services at DCPC, this is a family-friendly service, though if needed, child care will be available for those kindergarten and younger.
