Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, We are most grateful for the heartfelt prayers for Michael's shoulder replacement surgery! He received get well cards from many folks, and had a visit from our congregational nurse, Mary Kay, who brought beautiful flowers when she came! The shoulder replacement was successful, and very little pain accompanied it!! We are grateful also for prayers during Susan's cataract surgery last week!! We are blessed to be part of the loving, praying congregation at DHPC!!! In His Love, Susan and Michael Constance

The spread of the coronavirus across the world and our country has created an incredibly stressful environment for all of us, especially those with underlying health conditions. Because we are socially isolated and the media bombards us with the latest numbers on COVID-19 cases and deaths, we experience a roller coaster of emotions. Our reactions can fluctuate from disbelief, denial, anxiety, fear, anger, and even depression. If you’d like someone to talk with, our team members would be glad to visit with you by phone or in person. Barb Conti Joe Gilleland Moon Kahn Shirley Klein Sue Palmer

Weekly reservations are still required to attend. In addition, The Session is continuing its policy that masks or face shields are required for everyone who attends worship with the exception of children age five and under (who must remain with guardians at all times). A mask or face shield must be worn when you are entering the building, during the worship service and the entire time you are on the church campus (bring one from home or one will be provided). For those who are unable to wear a mask or face shield due to medical reasons, The Session feels that you are safer at home.
Special thank you to... Amy Woods, Bonnie Culler, Carolyn Oates and Rolene Dinsdale for their help in the office last week with the annual stewardship mailing!
