LOCAL MISSION

Local Mission here at DCBC focuses on serving the community through acts of compassion, outreach, and support, reflecting our commitment to living out our faith in practical ways.

Our goal is to build strong relationships within the community, help with the physical and spiritual needs of our neighbours, and demonstrate the love and teachings of Jesus Christ through tangible actions.

We seek to be a beacon of hope, promoting unity, kindness, and positive change in our local area.

Here are some of the ways we serve the community, though our outreach extends even further.

Café Wednesday

Join us on Wednesdays, 10am-11.30am through the term, for good coffee, shared kai, and relaxed conversation. It’s a welcoming space for anyone in our community to drop in, connect, and feel at home.

Lookout Music

Lookout Music is a fun, interactive, church-based music group for preschool children and their parents or primary caregivers. We meet during school-term on Tuesdays, 10-11:30am at DCBC.
Sessions are designed to encourage an enjoyment of music in children, and development of both music and movement skills. The half-hour music session is followed by morning tea for both caregivers and children, and a playtime for the children. This is a valuable time of connection and friendship-building for all ages.

Alpha

Got questions about life? Try Alpha - explore life, faith and meaning. Alpha is a relaxed environment to explore the Christian faith and big questions of life over kai, conversation and connection. Alpha is free and open to anyone.

School Holidays

School holidays…for some that’s exciting and for others its a juggle or a struggle. Whatever your thoughts on school holidays, we are here to help! They are always full of fun and entertaining activities for your little people. The programme is for primary school aged kids year 1 to year 6 during Term 1 and 3 and registrations are essential as numbers are limited.
