Equipping Hour classes are taught lecture-style by DCC pastors, staff, and leaders every Sunday at 9 a.m. for all ages and interests. Participate as you are able and drop in and out of classes as your schedule allows. No homework is required.
We can only cover limited ground during our Sunday gatherings. Therefore, these classes are meant to provide additional learning environments, across an array of topics, for the purpose of discipleship–and the glory of God.
“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.” – Jesus (Mt. 22:37)
