New Community in Capitol Hill!

, News

This coming week we are planting two new Cornerstone Communities. Today we’d like to introduce you to the lead/host of the new Capitol Hill Community:

PIERCE & BONNIE MARTIN

What are you most excited about leading/ launching this community?
“We’re excited to be part of what the Lord is doing through DCC and the opportunity to see the Gospel spread on Capitol Hill! We’re also just big fans of the neighborhood in general. We love the diversity of people, culture, and all of the cool places to hang out (especially the ones we haven’t been to yet).”

What do you love about community?
“It’s definitely being part of a family, getting to know and walk with people and being known by them. It’s amazing and humbling to see what God can do with a small bunch of very imperfect people. It’s fun, sometimes awkward, and ultimately encouraging to see God’s story unfolded among his people.”

What do you like to do for fun around the city or in your hood?
“There’s not a lot that we don’t like to do. If you’re looking for us on Capitol Hill, your best bets are: a coffee shop, book store, Cal Anderson Park (especially the tennis courts), or any intriguing looking dining establishments. You also might spot us at a concert or two, Bonnie at a vintage clothing store, and me thumbing through records in any nearby music store.”

From beginning to end, God’s aim is to glorify Himself through a people He is calling out from all tribes of the world and all neighborhoods of Seattle through the gospel. He calls this community of people the church.

This Monday at 6:00pm the Capitol Hill Community will begin meeting regularly, in addition to our current communities that gather in the Denny Triangle, Commercial Core, Pioneer Square and West Seattle. To get connected to this newly forming community, email . To learn more about the other Cornerstone Communities please visit our Community page.

November Prayer Night Date Change

News, Uncategorized

This month, our Prayer & Vision Night will occur on the third week of the month rather than the fourth due to Thanksgiving! Please join us at the Westin Building (6th & Virginia) on Thursday, November 17th @ 6:30pm, as we gather together for an evening of prayer, vision and worship. This event will occur in lieu of our normal weekly community rhythm, and will be an opportunity to go before our Father, asking Him to do what only He can do.

What will we do?

VISION: We’ll talk about where we are and where, by God’s grace, we are going.
WORSHIP: We’ll sing to the King.
PRAY: Most importantly, we’ll pray, asking God to do what only He can do.

“Pray then like this: ‘Our Father in heaven…’” (Mat 6:9)
“Pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” (Mat 9:38)
“…that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.” (Lk 18:1)
