Events at DC Church

Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Sunday and it represents the three days between the death of Jesus and His resurrection from the dead.

During our Good Friday Services, we will remember Jesus Christ’s death on the cross as atonement for our sins. Through song and scripture, we will reflect on the suffering Christ went through for our sake by sacrificing His life for our sins.

Join us for this intimate time of reflection Friday, APRIL 3rd at 6:30pm at BOTH DC Church locations. Childcare is only available for Preschool aged children at the West Portsmouth Campus (WPC) with online registration.

Be our guest for worship on Easter Sunday, APRIL 5th.

At our DEEP CREEK CAMPUS, we will have three worship services; a 6:30am Sunrise Service; 9:30am Traditional Worship Service with choir, praise team and orchestra; and an 11:00am Modern Worship Service with praise band.

At our WEST PORTSMOUTH CAMPUS, we will have two worship services, including a 6:30am Sunrise Service and an 11:00am Modern Worship Service with praise band.

There will be exciting kids’ activities and small groups on Easter, as there are each Sunday for children and preschoolers. So, if you have kids, they will have a special place just for them. They won’t want to leave. Come worship with us at DC CHURCH on Easter Sunday, APRIL 5th and all the Sundays yet to come.

Everyone is welcome to join in and help set your own passover table at the MESSIAH IN THE PASSOVER begins with the traditional Passover Seder table - complete with all the articles of this important Jewish celebration. The speaker will explain the symbolic meanings of the various items of the Passover feast and highlight their relationship to the Last Supper that Messiah celebrated with the disciples, giving special emphasis on the redemptive significance of the crucifixion. MESSIAH IN THE PASSOVER gives the Christian community insight into Jewish traditions so that the Jewish roots of Christianity can be better understood. This program also helps the Jewish and Christian communities understand their common heritage. Rev. David Sedaca will present the Messiah in the Passover with participation at the Deep Creek Campus gym on March 25th at 6pm-7:30pm.

We meet in the Concourse room each week at 11:00am at the Deep Creek Campus except for the third Wednesday of the month when we share our hymns with the residents of Cedar Manor at 10:30am.

These are great opportunities for students who want to grow deeper in their faith, as well as those who are looking to begin a relationship with Jesus.
