These seven initiatives anchor the work and production of and from DCBC necessitating a high level of interconnectedness. This plan provides various levels and entry points of engagement for church participation and opportunities for people and churches to engage with us. The Way Forward energizes our membership to live out our call in an organic, active, and collaborative manner centered on Christ. New initiatives can be developed along the way as the Holy Spirit, our membership and society call us.

All of these initiatives are inter-connected, inter-working, and held together by our shared collaborative action.
