Sanctuary Flooring News

The sanctuary flooring contractor outlined and prepared the entire floor for the project this past Monday, but due to difficulties with the tile, we are considering a change in the sequence of the project and may install the carpet first. The carpet arrived today.

Carpet Movers Needed

The new sanctuary carpet will arrive tomorrow between 10 and 11 a.m. It will be a sidewalk drop-off delivery, meaning we will need to bring in 11 rolls of carpet from Spruce Street into the sanctuary. Several sextons will be here, but we need others to join in. Your help would be much appreciated if you are available.

DC Prayer and Praise Celebration

This special evening (Thursday, January 7) is designed for the entire family as we celebrate Delaware County Christian School's 60th Anniversary and the many blessings God has bestowed on DC. The evening will end promptly at 8:30 p.m. Please bring the family as we worship in song with gifted worship leaders -- Greg and Linda Hytha (Linda Lownes Hytha is a DC grad) -- share our blessings with an open mic, interspersed with times of prayer.

Greg and Linda Hytha (DC grad ‘77) have been on an enthusiastic and ever-changing musical adventure for several decades, whether it be touring , producing origina lCD’s, or playing various venues in the Philadelphia region. Greg and Linda currently lead worship at Grace Valley Fellowship Valley Forge, and Greg leads music for the mid-week service at Calvary Church of Souderton. Their latest endeavor has been to incorporate the rest of their family into the band: Carrie (14) on vocals/keys, Chris (12) on drums, Rob (19) on sax/percussion and Alex (16) on sound.

Mark your calendars now for an evening you will not want to miss!
