Our Ministries

Our Sunday morning services and special seasonal offerings, as well as life-cycle ceremonies such as weddings and memorial services, are all in the context of Christian worship.

Learning and growing in faith is an essential part of our church’s community. We offer programs, activities and groups of all kinds for all ages.

Our mission statement affirms that “we come together in the name of Jesus Christ to worship, pray, learn, and serve.” In so many ways, these four actions are entwined.

Our mission is to promote stewardship as a year-round practice of giving and dialog, using and sharing each of our incredible blessings to further our relationship with God.

Welcome To DCC

We are a church that welcomes all, regardless of mental status, immigration status, sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, class, age, marital status, family structure, or physical ability. We are a community of faith that views itself as just one inclusive household within the vast family of God’s beloved humanity, all of whom were made in God’s image.

We welcome everyone who seeks to be in a relationship with God and nurture their spiritual understanding by walking this journey of faith in an accepting, caring, and loving community of mutual support

EDCC

Every week the DCC office sends out an “electronic news bulletin,” colloquially known as the eDCC. Upcoming Sunday service information, ongoing book studies, reaching out and youth projects, and events all are covered, as well as the birthdays and anniversaries of our members. For some who are too far away to attend services, this is the perfect way to keep up with all that’s going on in our church. News items can be submitted for inclusion by emailing or calling the church office.

Calendar

The DCC calendar is updated regularly, with scheduled church meetings, events and services. Included are all community events that may be taking place on our Great Room, parlor or sanctuary.

Pastor’s Ponderings

My greatest joys in ministry are encouraging all people to know that they are God’s beloved children, and sharing thanks and praise to God in worship.

The Wider Church

Since 1983, our church has been a member of the national denomination the United Church of Christ (UCC)

God Sightings

“God Sightings.” are moments when we experience God in unexpected ways. We see them in the beauty of nature and in our members.

Spirit on the Move

Whether it’s raising both awareness and money to help alleviate hunger in the world, or making dresses for children across the globe, our members are always reaching out to help others 

In The Community

DCC Wood Bank 

The Deerfield Wood Bank is located behind the Deerfield Community Church at 15 Church Street, Deerfield. It is managed by the church. The bank serves the towns of Deerfield, Northwood, Candia, Epsom, Nottingham, Allentown and Raymond.

Free wood is available to anyone in these towns on an emergency basis. The wood is seasoned and available in approx 16 inch lengths. Each recipient is allowed up to 1/2 cord per season and is responsible for pickup at the church.

Before pickup we ask that each recipient call the church at 603-463-7734 and you will speak to either Lori or Kurt. They will ask your name, address and telephone number  which will remain confidential and arrange a time for your pickup. There may be a wood bank volunteer present to help with your pickup. You can also contact the church through our website  deerchurch.org.

Thank you for your interest and we hope to be able to help in your time of need.
