Deer Creek Church Updates

The pastors of Deer Creek Church have been busy developing a new podcast. Simply Disciples is a discipleship podcast designed to help people at Deer Creek Church think and act faithfully in a changing world.  Episodes will be released each week starting in September.  We would encourage individuals and small groups  to utilize this new resource. The first series of episodes cover the topic of Theology.

Over the next month we will be launching a new website and logo.  Slowly you will begin to see signage and graphics change as well.  This project has been in the works for the last 6 months. Shelby Gloudemans, a graphic designer and member at Deer Creek Church,  has been helping us with this process for the last 6 months. We are excited to share the results.

We will have a congregational meeting on August 27th at 4:30 PM to conduct some important business in the life of our church. Our elders are recommending that the congregation do the following:

First, that we officially and formally install Daniel Nealon as the Lead Pastor at Deer Creek Church. Second, that we will change Chad Donohoe’s role from Assistant Pastor (pastor called by the session, but not a voting member of our session) to Associate Pastor (pastor called by the congregation and a voting member of the session) Finally, that we ordain new deacons. We will send out specific details about the candidates when the meeting gets closer.

We hope that all members can join us for this important meeting.
