Family Fellowship Meals Return this Spring

On Wednesday evenings, there are programs for the whole family! Children, from pre-Kindergarteners to 8th grade, are invited to join one of the children's choirs that meet from 4:30 p.m. onwards.

Beginning April 6, family dinners will be served in the Gym from 5:00 until 6:30 p.m. through May 11.

There is a catered dinner in the Gym from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. for families and individuals at the church. Dinner tickets are available on a subscription basis. There are typically two meal subscriptions per year (fall and spring). All families must register for an entire subscription period. Children 3 and under eat free.

Please print out the attached form and send it to John Smoke. 

You may pay on our secure giving page at dgfumc.org/giving (select the Children and Family section and indicate meal subcription).

As the first day of Lent, Ash Wednesday is a time for reflecting on our humanity, sins, and mortality. One Wednesday every year we worship to remember who we are, and hopeful of who we can be. Join us in prayer together as we consider a thoughtful path this Lenten season.

Online Worship

Our live-streamed worship service will be available for viewing on YouTube.

In-person Worship
We have made the following changes to our policy in response to the recently revised CDC and State of Illinois guidelines:

  • Masks are no longer required in the church and during worship according to recent CDC and State of Illinois Health Department updates.
  • For those who have not received a complete COVID-19 vaccine yet, wearing a mask is still required.
  • There will be no tracking method for checking vaccination records. We encourage everyone to become familiar with CDC guidelines and use best judgment.
  • We are now singing indoors during the service, however our Chancel Choir Board voted to continue to wear masks.

All are welcome!
