Mission Trips
Mission trips allow us to live with and learn from our brothers and sisters in other parts of the country and around the world while sharing their struggles with hunger, poverty, natural disaster. We offer a helping hand, but most importantly, an open heart to all we meet. There are opportunities for everyone to be involved with mission trips at DPC, including participating in a trip, praying for trip participants and for those whom with they will be working, and helping to provide supplies and support for volunteers.
We travel to lend a helping hand!

DPC Work Trip to the Community Pantry
In 2024 our two trips to the Community Pantry in Gallup, NM were in March and September. Plans for 2025 trips will be set before the end of the year. Contact the church office for details. This video below offers a glimpse of the work done at the Pantry.
Multi-Generational Jersey Shore Mission Trip
October 1 – 2, 2020
In 2020, a group from DPC returned to the Jersey Shore to work with the St. Bernard’s Project to rebuild a home that was damaged in Hurricane Sandy. The family has been displaced since the massive storm eight years ago and is hoping they may finally be able to return home by this Christmas. St. Bernard’s Project is depending on DPC to help complete this home and we are almost at the finish line!
Mission Trip Scholarships
If you are a DPC member and are interested in going on a mission trip but are in need of financial assistance, we encourage you to apply for scholarship funding from the mission committee. The form is available in the church office.
