Opportunities at the Dublin Community Church
Music
We celebrate the strength of this church’s fine music program. Under the leadership of our Music Director, Barbara Summers, our senior choir is well known in the community and region for it excellence and outstanding voices. Our morning worship is truly blessed to be filled such inspiring vocal music, and the talent of Ms. Summers on the organ. The church is also blessed with a music endowment that allows us to bring special guest soloists, accompanists, and musical groups to regularly enhance our worship experience. The children also join in singing special numbers in worship from time to time. New members of the choir are always welcome!
Christian Education
We are also blessed to have such a strong program of Christian Education. The Sunday church school offers an engaging morning of learning and sharing for our children. Following a special story or talk with them in worship, the children leave the sanctuary for their Sunday school. The program helps them learn about the love of God and Jesus, and how to translate that love into lives of caring and joy. We are very blessed to have the creative leadership in this program of our Church School Director, Rosamond “Yummy” Cady, whose love of children shines through all that we do, and motivates our other adult leaders and teachers.
There is a weekly adult education opportunity as well. Meeting most recently on Thursday mornings at 10:00 in the vestry, this group has done Bible study and book study and discussion. It is always open to any adults who wish to join in.
Mission and Outreach
The church contributes substantially to mission work in our immediate vicinity, across the nation, and around the world. Some of the ministries we support include the Dublin Recreation Fund, Friends of the Oglala Lakota Indians, Habitat for Humanity, the Monadnock Center for Violence and Monadnock Family Services, the Community Kitchen in Keene, the Fresh Air Fund, Doctors without Borders, and the many global missions of the United Church of Christ supported through our Wider Mission budget. The Board of Outreach also conducts mission education programs and engages in many other annual activities that provide assistance to church members and community residents in need.
Other Events
The church also holds a spring and a fall rummage sale which provides needed income to the church and also serves as a community service, providing clothing and other goods at very low cost. During Lent a luncheon series is held that always draws great interest. Also, the annual St. Patrick’s Dinner is a great time of food and fun. Additionally, there are occasional social events, dinners, and other activities that help to keep the fellowship warm and the atmosphere inviting. |
